"All Night Long" is the third single from rapper Common's 1997 album One Day It'll All Make Sense. It features vocals from Erykah Badu and production from The Roots, and contains re-sung elements from "Don't Stop the Music" by Yarbrough and Peoples. The Brand New Heavies remixed it for the single's b-side and The 24 Hour Woman soundtrack.
Writing for Rock The Bells, critic Jacinta Howard remarked that All Night Long "offered a glimpse into what was to come less than two years later with their definitive work as the Soulquarians — Common's career-defining album, 2000's Like Water for Chocolate and Badu's genre-establishing effort, 2000's Mama's Gun.[1]
