There’s a good chance that Common had puppy-dog-love relationships when he was a youngster in his hometown of Chicago. But he wasn’t famous then so besides a woman named Rayshel, who’s said to be his ex-girlfriend and sang on his debut album “Can I Borrow a Dollar?,” there’s not much known about his early dating life.
Of course, that changed as he became more famous because his first reported adult relationship was with a woman named Kim Jones. Per PopSugar, they got together in the latter part of the ’90s, had a daughter named Omoye Assata Lynn (pictured above) in 1997, and broke up when their child was still a baby. Throughout the years, Common hasn’t spoken much about Jones, but he has opened up about their daughter, sharing that she once questioned his love for her.
“It kind of shocked me because that’s the first time I had ever heard it. I was like, ‘What do you mean?'” Common told People in 2019. “She said, ‘It felt like you didn’t fight for me’ …That love is obviously there. But it’s like sometimes I wasn’t able to have as much access and without that, we couldn’t build the strongest relationship.” Thankfully, for the two, they patched things up after that conversation. And as far as Jones, she’s always kept an incredibly low profile and as of 2022, there aren’t even any photos of her on Lynn’s Instagram page.
