lol like say na only this one una dey download

Even Ibime too?? What next Sauron will get an illegal download??
Lord have mercy!!!

I refuse to download it till it's release day, but I listened to My Generation on Youtube and I swear I don't know how I can survive this.
Good thing I've got exams to keep me busy till then.

Proof that Nas still remains a lyrics god, he released the lyrics on the album website before the album itself.
Isn't that just like . . . next level??

I

vomit 
diamonds

I 
gave 
you 
Mandela, 
Black 
Dalai 
Lamas

I
 gave 
you 
music

You
 enthused 
in 
my 
kindness

So
 how
 dare 
you
 reduce 
me 
to 
Donny
 Imus

WTF!!! Just when I was about to accuse K'naan of going too mainstream with his themes.
This guy is gifted . . . he is sumn else.
Aiite . . . I'm giving up real soon, I have to download this ish, I'm not even concentrating on the work I should be doing.

Its
 me 
and 
my 
Nation 
against
 the 
World

Then 
me 
and 
my 
Clan 
against
 the 
Nation

Then 
me 
and 
my
 Fam’
 against 
the 
Clan

Then
 me 
and 
my 
brother 
we 
no 
hesitation

Uh!

Go
 against
 the 
Fam’ 
until 
they
 cave 
in

Now 
who’s 
left 
in 
this 
deadly 
equation?

That’s
 right, 
it’s 
me 
against 
my 
brother

Then

point 
a 
Kalashnikov

And
 kill 
one 
another

K'naan is just my artiste . . . you know how you feel when you watch the development of an artist you felt from the first day.
And the fact that he makes good music just makes him my favourite artist.

I'm still yet to download the album . . . you guys are pirates.

eldee:

And what are you?. . . . Kaiser Chiefs? 

I have been tracking this album and to be honest, it is one of the best things to happen to hiphop from a lyrical, educaitonal and cultural point of view. Even the papers are full of praises for it here.

Kudos to them both for this one.

your favourite? i appreciate the fact that he learnt english like 5 years ago and all, and he's a conscious rapper, but the problem is, his music is just. . . there. nothing to write home about, imo.

^^

Have to get this today

Erm . . . he's not even a rapper.
He's the best thing that's happened to music in a long time.
You obviously haven't listened to The Dusty Foot Philosopher.

Ibime:

Nah, I'm a Bucaneer

The way you guyz are hyping this, i have to download it tonight!

eldee:

Nah, I'm a Bucaneer

So you be fine boy?. . . . I knew you wasnt the warrior type!


When did K'naan start singing sef?. . . . I hope he's not gonna be one of these rapper-singers. . . . nothing special about his raps IMO. . . . and his singing?. . . .well, how many octaves can his voice carry?. . . it seems everyone is a singer namadays.

It's not his voice, it's his ability to compose good music. . . like a Fela or sumn.
Like the Waving Flag song and Wait A Minute . . . he's next level, and his African themes just bought me.

I just like the fact that people are finally beginning to recognise him. . .

Chei . . . see this mago-mago lawyer.
Next thing Obasanjo will start collecting Ministry of Health grants claiming he's entitled to it as a farmer.

what is he then? lol

He's the best thing that's happened to music in a long time.

*koff*stan*koff*

You obviously haven't listened to The Dusty Foot Philosopher.

Nope. Only Troubadour. Which didn't impress me much.

He's an artist. . . it's not compulsory to put people into boxes.
What will you call Damian Marley?? Dancehall?? Rap?? Reggae?? R'n'B??

hax:

*koff*stan*koff*

Hehe . . . that's not just my opinion, it's shared by every music critic you know.
Ask the queue of artistes/producers/organisations that have endorsed him without any major marketing deal.

Well . . . I guess it's different strokes then.

Who still dey buy album for 2010? No be only buy na bayo! Thats like playing Familycom or Colecovision and playing Mortal Kombat vs D.C Comics on it

@Hax
Dude mehn K'Naan is more than just a rapper! His music is too deep to call it just rap. He is a modern day poet,philosopher and story teller. I listen to a lot of shake bodi music but when i want to hear that meaningful ish K'Naan is one of the fellas i bump to. By the way Dusty Foot Philosopher is way better than Troubadour
I recommend tracks like:
Smile
What's Hardcore
In the Beginning
In my head
If Rap gets jealous

If someone's not impressed with T.I.A, ABCs or Waving Flag . . . there's no way he'll be able to feel songs like Soobax, I Was Stabbed By Satan and Until The Lion Learns To Speak.
It's probably not just his type of music.

@Eldee
I even left out my fave song on the DFP album 'Struggling'. I take that back Dusty Foot Philosopher is about the same as Troubadour with songs like 'America' ft Mos Def and Charlie 2NA where he was speaking Somali 'People like Me' 'Bang' 'I come prepared' with Damian Marley (He killed that song) 'If Rap gets Jealous remix' Troubadour was great too. Maybe you are right he may just not like K'Naan
