Common visits Sing Sing Correctional Facility | Carnegie Hall’s Musical Connections

In June 2022, renowned rapper and actor Common performed for the general population at Sing Sing Correctional Facility as a part of Carnegie Hall’s Musical Connections program. Earlier in the day, he spoke and made music with incarcerated men who participate in the program.

Committed to helping people achieve positive, meaningful creative goals, Musical Connections invites men at Sing Sing Correctional Facility to create and perform music with visiting artists. A series of workshops focuses on developing composition, arrangement, instrumental, and vocal skills, while several concerts for the facility’s residents, staff, and families feature original works written and performed by the artistic community.
