Genre: Hip-Hop
K’Naan (Keynaan) means traveller in Somali. He’s a poet and Hip-Hop artist from Somalia – from the Hawiya clan. He was born in Mogadishu. He’s has amazing music, style and morals as well as a voice different from any other artist at this time.
K’Naan hooked up with Jarvis Church (Track and Feild Productions) who has also worked with Nelly Furtado – and this friendship produced an album called “The Dusty Foot Philosopher”.

I am personally a HUGE fan of K’Naans!
Although his discography only consists of one album (The Dusty Foot Philosopher), the album is phenominal – packed back to back with amazing, strong, politically challenging, and unique songs.
He’s performed with artists such as Mos Def and Damian Marley, and many other talented musiciains.
