In Common "In Common" is a song by American singer and songwriter Alicia Keys, recorded for her sixth studio album, "Here". The song was written by Keys, Carlo "Illangelo" Montagnese, Billy Walsh and Taylor Parks, and produced by Illangelo. It is a departure from her R&B sound, having a tropical music and dancehall sound, with Latin beat, Afrobeat instrumental, collage of electronic beats, tropicalia-infused rhythms and icy drum patterns as its main instrumentation. Keys uses a hushed tone during the track. Lyrically, "In Common" is about a woman and her first date. She is immediately infatuated and enamored by the experience and the evening.
