I haven't looked at the track list but his last two singles on the radio have been pop as hell.....the one with Nelly Furtado which I thought was on an EP and his latest one in which he's singing about a girl trying to break up with him. I don't want to judge dude but its like after Waving Flag he's trying to go straight mainstream.

this shyt is trash. and I absolutely LOVED Knan's previous works. Plus he is still on his "im a refugee, im so hard" steez, which is a bit trite given that this is his third album where he still goes on and on about this.

yeah the refugee bit is tiring, you'd think he would be a bit more creative after rapping for over 10 years now

shid, the only track I can listen to is the Nas joint and one of the bonus ones (On the Other side)

K'naan fell off hard. His mixtape with JPeriod was the last decent collection of music he put out. After that it was :scusthov:

The album aint good but i like the song "Gold In Timbuktu"
Just saw him live in DC and K'Naan never disappoints with live performance, was a great show. :yes:

But yo, he pretty much said on stage that this album was whack :leon:

Someone in the audience had a copy of "country, God, or the Girl" and he was like "thanks for buying the album, I really appreciate it. It is interesting though, this isn't my best work and I did a lot of experimentation on it. I definitely think the first two outshine this one"


:russ: Everyone's third album is shid

I stop fuccing with knaan when he started getting radio play........straight garbage!

I liked his raw poetic/lyrical songs sometimes with classic Somali chorus but its like dude said fuc it and embraced the diseased pop culture genre.

Wuu na ceebeeyey bastarka
