Hip Hop
K’NAAN has come out with a new album called “Troubadour”. In it, according to a radio show called Sound Opinions, the hip hop musician shows what kind of life he has led all this time. He is not just a regular rapper. He’s from Mogadishu and makes an important statement about that. He says that he comes from the worst ghetto of them all, because when he was a kid, the city was an active warzone in an awful civil war. Parts of the album are good, according to the radio show, other parts aren’t nearly so good, with the musician trying to do a lot more than he really could without giving them all a bit of short shrift. And the guest appearances are a bit overdone too.
