Album Description

K'naan, former refugee, now based in Toronto makes music that is a mixture of hip hop, African beats and world music intertwined - combining African drums, chants, handclaps, guitars and organic instrumentation sets this album outside the hip hop herd. K'naan creates music with a message. Leaving Somalia at the age of thirteen on what turned out to be the last commercial flight ever to do so, amidst a crumbling society and the end to this day of any form of central government K'naan carried with him a very strong sense of purpose as well as his amazing lyrical gift, which has made him a beacon for other artists a well as those dedicated to global change. Canada only release! With his unique voice and truly authentic style, K'naan brings an enormous dose of realness and urgency to the hip-hop world in a time when people are desperate for it. From a personal and cultural history rooted in poetry (being the grandson of one of Somalia's most famous poets), K'naan widens the traditional hip-hop perspective. Discovered and produced by Track & Field, same producers that discovered and produced Nelly Furtado, Dusty Foot Philosopher is comprised of 18 total tracks including 'Smile', 'My Old Home', 'In The Beginning', 'Voices In My Head', 'Wash It Down', 'Hoobaale', 'Rap Gets Jealous' and more. BMG. 2005.


Album Details

Negotiating his Way Forcefully Through a Gritty Sandstorm of Spoken-word and African Instrumental Interludes, K'naan Brings Us a Collection of Funky, Original Backgrounds Nearly as Weighty as the Cautionary Words that Float above Them. In his Liner Notes, K'naan Recounts a Nearly Fatal Incident Involving a Live Grenade which He and a Couple of his School Friends Discovered in their Classroom in Mogadishu, Somalia. While Playing with the Mysterious Object, which Initially Looked Like a Potato, the Grenade's Pin Slipped. Throwing it as Fast and as Far as He Could, the Destructive Object Lay to Ruin Much of the Empty Building. Thankfully, No One was Hurt. Then Only Ten Years Old, K'naan (Whose Name Means "The Traveller" in Somalian) Credits that Event as the Watershed Moment which Led Him to Become a Writer.

5.0étoiles sur 5 powerful!, Aoû 12 2009
Par mgtoronto (Toronto, Canada) - Voir tous mes commentaires
An amazing album with a powerful emotional voice. It gets better the more you listen to it and it is actually superior in production to his latest album Troubadour. And despite focusing on his Somalian experiences and its horrors, K'Naan comes through as a positive spirit of hope.

Those of you expecting a mainstream rap album may be disappointed, but even calling it a rap album could mislead people away from something they might thoroughly enjoy.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Great surprise, Nov. 26 2006
Par J. Wiest "whafrog" (St. Paul, MN) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(REAL NAME)   
I normally don't go for hip hop and I hardly ever give 5 stars, but quality trumps genre any day, and this is some great stuff. Musically influenced by hip hop beats and his native Somalia, he manages to keep them successfully distinct. When he does merge them, it is with skill and style and wit. Too often merged styles end up sounding muddy, but not here.

The lyrics are poetic. He deals with some very serious subjects, but manages to inject humour and pragmatism without cheapening the message.

Finally, the album works well as a whole, not just a collection of songs, though you'll probably want to add some singles to your playlists.

Enjoy!

5.0étoiles sur 5 It's MCs like K'naan that do this., Déc 16 2005
This album is a salvation. It's such a huge to relief to see/hear artists like K'naan produce some conscious hip hop and have the courage to not go with the mainstream "pop-rap nsync sound-a-likes". The songs on this album... they really struck a few chords with my mental and spiritual, if u noe what im sayin'. K'naans songs/ bg music are fresh, clean and have a slight K-Os type feel although there are noticeable (but positive) differences. It's people like K'naan that got me into Hip Hop and really show the music form for what it really is. I only heard this album at my friends place, but after hearing it I have every reason in the world to buy it. This album is musically complete and will open ur eyes to true hip hop.
