I am a huge K-OS fan and I'm excited for his new LP. I'm going to be outlining (and updating) all of the media, interviews, news and updates associated with this album as I get them. When I have something new, I'll update the thread with that information, tag it with " #KOSCFWG " and update the OP as well. Subscribe to the tag (or thread) so that you'll be notified automatically and I won't have to "@" everyone when something new comes up. If you have anything to add, please do not hesitate to do so.

If there is anyone I didn't mention that you know are fans, please let them know.

“My Canadian accent set me apart from kids there—they used to say ‘Yankee go home’ and stuff like that. I didn’t fit in, but going back opened up a well of passion,” says k-os. “This new single, which is raw, could only be this way because I feel new. And to feel new to a style sometimes you have to step away from it.Can’t Fly Without Gravity is the sound of somebody who’s consciously forgotten about pop music to understand it again. We all need to forget something that we like so that we can like it again.”

In many of the interviews I have posted, he talks about Drake and how they first met and what he thinks about him. Listen to the last one that I posted, he talks about how Drake is trying to dub Toronto "The 6" and why he's targeting Canada as his go to market. It's interesting to hear how he sees it. He clowns Drake but never has anything truly disparaging to say about him.

It's about time. He's pump faked a few times in the past about new music. For a while he was saying that he was only going to release double albums and talked about releasing a double Jazz and Reggae album or a stand alone Jazz album. I do not remember which one. I still do not know what "The Virgin" is as he never spoke about it again after it's initial mention. There was supposed to be a BLack On BLonde Excelsior" EP of stuff that didn't make the album from Christmas 2013 that never happened (@5:11).


I wonder if some of those will make Can't Fly Without Gravity? I kind of hope they do and do not at the same time. Then there was that article where he said he wouldn't release albums at all (http://consequenceofsound.net/2010/02/k-os-wont-make-any-more-albums/) and just a song with a video a month for a year straight. That never happened either. He did release a bunch of snippets leading up to BLack On BLonde's release. There were a bunch of songs that were dope as hell but he deleted almost all of that stuff.

Anyone preorder BLack On BLonde on iTunes? I'm looking for the C.L.A. (DreamMachine) RMX. I copped the CD but it wasn't included.

He has a bunch of YouTube pages with some stuff on them as well.

This is a longer snippet of a snippet that was released, damn, back in 2011.

It sounded amazing three years ago and I'm very hype about how well this song could turn out. Now only if he'd release "Silver Lynin'". (Check the comments of the Spaceships video.)

http://malien.tumblr.com/post/99718765700/twenty-monks-and-one-nun-who-was-named-eshun

"Twenty monks and one nun, who was named Eshun, were practicing meditation with a certain Zen master. Eshun was very pretty even though her head was shaved and her dress plain. Several monks secretly fell in love with her. one of them wrote her a love letter, insisting upon a private meeting. Eshun did not reply. The following day the master gave a lecture to the group, and when it was over, Eshun arose. Addressing the one who had written her, she said: ‘If you really love me so much, come and embrace me now."

There is also these alternate versions of Sprayin My Pen and Burning Bridges that I found on his facebook.
SMP:
(F u c k i n g amazing. I wish he'd remix the entire official song with this instrumental and release that.)

BB:
(It's pretty dope and a full remix treatment would be appreciated.)
