K'naan - Live - Sobax (live), Struggling (live)
K'NAAN, “the traveler”, fled war-torn Somalia at the age of thirteen on what turned out to be the very last commercial flight to ever do so, amidst a crumbling society and the end of any form of centralized government. He arrived in Toronto with a very strong sense of purpose, and it is this sense of purpose as well as his amazing lyrical gift, which has made him a beacon for other artists as well as those dedicated to global change. An elegant ambassador of peace, K'NAAN rhymes against violence because he never forgot the chance he had to escape death. 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.
