In 2013, he returned to the studio and began work on his tenth album and later revealed that the production, much like his previous effort, would be handled entirely by his longtime collaborator and record producer No I.D..

The title and concept of the album was inspired by the violence and high crime rate in Common's hometown of Chicago, Illinois. The album features guest appearances from Lil Herb, Big Sean, Jhené Aiko, Snoh Aalegra, Dreezy, Elijah Blake, Vince Staples and Cocaine 80s. The album was supported by three singles, "Kingdom" (featuring Vince Staples), "Speak My Piece" and "Diamonds" (featuring Big Sean). Tracklist: 01 The Neighborhood (feat.
