[CappitranoBellephant]

@fkucnts1 Why are you commenting on all his videos on how bad he is and how much somalia sucks? Why don't you get a life and stop trolling. You say he's doing nothing but here you are behind a computer doing what exactly? What are you doing again? Oh yeah that's right nothing...

[NarutoUzumakiRockz1]

@fkucnts1, I bet where you live is poor. Are you jealous? Get a f**king life.

Hope you starve. May god curse you! You'll be regretting this when you die.

@infernape1408 Do you know what the true meaning of FAG is. Don't use such a term to describe anybody. It's not about being queer, but violence.

[hco323]

We need to support these type of talent. I am tired of hearing ths shit on radio that is called "rap" giving what real hip hop was all about. As soon as i get paid. I am buying K's shit. Gotta rep for Africa :)

[ManuelFrost]

[theswitch2006]

SOMALI 4 LIFE! DAT HOW WE DO RESPECT 4 K naan

[snigahiga]

it's been YEARS since i heard chubb rock. man that feels good. k'naan's performance was excellent, but he had better raps on the dusty foot philosopher. this is a little more of a sing-rap style.

[elcapiblanco]

great singer but no real rap!

check out the old stuff like wutang or my man Dre!

That´s the shit!

[dollarsignOFFICIAL]

@elcapiblanco

Nono, this IS real rap.

[forovia]

I have never knew who he was till his world cup song" waving the flag". I will definitely buy his album. Good music and good lyrics. One love !

[SuperMaxamad]

K'naan you're my hero buddy, trust me you're better than those fake rappers!!!!

[bruup123]

i love this guy! he raps about real things and real struggle. not just how he has hustled to get a flash car or how many girls he has fucked. keep it up man!!

[ThisIsRicCartman]

[mefius1]

good job K'Naan

[26600095]

interesting

[DiSNeYFaNHeaRT]

Omg, k'naan is soo amazing. He deserves everything he gets. Becuus his music is much better than other rap music... like Lil Wayne, Kanye West or all this fu*king shit. k'naans song have good textes! They mean something. lil waynes or other's don't!

That's why k'naan is amazing. <3

[mundhain185]

this is real right here, great beat too!

[ninosM1]

this is how rap should be

[loveofsk8]

Love the accent!

[macsalah]

this song is the best dogg

[BathrobeKeck]

the penultimate of penmanship and cold hard soul, he swaggers without the need to braggar' he's just so damn cool, cuz he aint nobody's fool.

[mr9inez]

Word !z born Pac the real!zt then k'naan.. per!od.

[FunkyFrancek77]

"these streets ain't paved with no gold, matter a fact someone stole the light bulb...."

[IranWantsDivorce]

I went thru 2 chubb rock cassettes in grade 7 - rewinding and playing so much till the tape tore - I love that dude!

[reymysterio6195948]

knaan rocks his the best

[lookinfresh123]

FANTASTIC...real rap, unlike that lil wayne, kanye shit

[TheDavey222]

@lookinfresh123 the man understand..tight mf bass lines, top notch tech production, total off the hook syncopation..funk ass top notch...

[dayoungrebel93]

@lookinfresh123 kanye sucks now

but go back to his college dropout years and you will like him

[hco323]

@lookinfresh123 Kanye is good leave him out of that lol

[inimegdesign]

@lookinfresh123 : very very true....

[twistt]

@lookinfresh123 yea man! Immortal Technique n Necro and Ill BIll and shit like this is all great rap, not like that shitty stuff.

[bowoutagain]

@twistt i love necro but his style is sloppy, not put together well. Also very violent! Good all the same though. lovin mac lethal and e-dubble good shit.

[easyreload]

@lookinfresh123--- K'Naan can never beat lil wayne, kanye..

he ain't gonna be rich nigga,

he'aint gonna get a bitch tonight, he gets hit 2nite

[ColtonCM]

@easyreload What value are those riches going to have when Lil' Wayne and Kanye's time on the floor is done? K'naan will have the legacy of keeping real hip-hop alive when he's out of the game, while Lil' Wayne and Kanye will be seen as those generic mainstream rappers that brought nothing to the culture.

[leeeeni]

@lookinfresh123 kanye made real rap too. but all the new songs are bad

[JingX2761]

Knaan Is The Most Ture Artist I Seen so far xD

[BlackFlames180]

HE IS SIK!! RAPS 2 FAST!!

[100kalkidan]

[TimesNuRoman]

[chattertooth123]

I LOVE K NAAN! u rock

[DarkLordToken]

[iratevids9]

threw like 3 years of my life ive been tired of fake niggas,,, now k naans out i love k naan true nigga!!!! u deserve everythin ur getting and more man bless u k naan

KNAAN IS A TRUE NIGGA all my respect to him.

[jlschix]

@iratevids9 first of all he isnt a true nigga OK does he looke like a slave 2 u or something go0o0osh :@

[VidConcepts]

@iratevids9 It's apparent that you don't truly get the some of the flow of this song. Chubb explicitly says "The 'B' Word or 'N' word, I don't need them." Get the message elevate your mind.

[17bgmex17]

@iratevids9 i feel what you're saying but he is a true man i dislike how people say that they real niggas but just calling themselves that makes me think that there bullshitters. just my thought but i get what you trying to get across homie.

[Down2EarthNik84]

@17bgmex17 I really agree with that statement and very well put.

[TheDeenaG]

@iratevids9 screw your "nigga" shit

[NamelessFaceless97]

@iratevids9 Totally agree with you on K'Naan being real, but is it really necessary to throw out the N word so much?

[MSDK]

REXDALE

[mariaredbull1]

@somadinho hahaha awesome!

[TheTorres39]

[McProZak]

[Zoul4Revolution]

IBDA'A YA MAN :D

[REALKingTutLaShell]

I love K'Naan to death. All my friends are like "its African RAP! you know why rap is so similar to crap? BECAUSE THATS WHAT IT IS. Ma'fuckers.

[Canbaro06]

Love dis dude with passion...U make us proud hun..

[MsSamzilla]

"they don't teach us the ABC" (8)

[Mrfairful]

nothing but respect

[TheTroubledTribble]

Absolutely love this man.

:)

[waddani100]

great music

[playtilal]

k`naans music is dopee

[dhagax]

I have notices those guys who are keep saying K'naan stole some beats are few rotten Ethiopians who are giving bad name to their nation.

Drop this shit and enjoy the music......if u don't K'naan and Somali people its tough , go and kill yourself!

By the way I like Somalian, Ethiopian , Eritrean and Sudan's music !

[hhaisem]

duunnnnoooo ERITREAN 4ever

[REALKingTutLaShell]

it somalian

[hhaisem]

@REALKingTutLaShell i noe tht

[captkicks2match]

chubb rock

[Juweyriya]

how tha fuck u expect ppl to believe that shit....it's him that's talented....fuck the music n listen 2 the lyricks....IT CANT NEVER B ethiopian NOTHING!

[ozelalem]

Idiot...

respect others.

[Juweyriya]

he's an original pure somali man....now for those of u ignorant ppl up in here talking about ethiopians beats being stolen FUCK OFF....is now flying with any1

[shoshanq]

As an Ethiopian who loves music I must say I never thought that our music could be successfully synthesized with Hip Hop, or any other sound for that matter. K'naan did a fucking brilliant job, amazing. All the people accusing him of stealing should shut their mouth and take their bigotry elsewhere. I am proud that K'naan is putting East African music in the spotlight, and I am sure all the ethio-jazz greats feel the same way.

[a7fa7x]

OMG WAS THAT BLACKALICIOUS?

[jeestto]

iam surprised about these little ethipian runing arroung talking about k'naan stole 1950's ethiopian beats lool since when dide the ethiopians had hip hop beats...this is just phony on these little rats trying to put brother k'naan down. drink some haterate or some and respect the man even if if he did use ethiopian beats u should thank him for puting ethiopia on the map..and remember somali music and ethiopian music are simillar so think before u judge someone's material. the guy is talented.

[googlelove]

i love somali music just like ethiopia music the same feeling

It is true all this beats are from old Ethiopian music go see check it on yourtube under the name Éthiopiques

I love knaan he is brilliant

Do some research about ethiopian

[ozelalem]

who the fu u are to call others lill, idiot. i love k'naan. he's the best. but u a damm to think he put a country on a map. tis muthufuks like you who dont think you dont exist in the map. K'naan can use the beats from ethiopian music. that doest make him less talented. it just shows his affiliations, obviously east african. but ya try wash yo bitchyy mind???

[jeestto]

ethios it is people like u who put east africa down with ur little hate agenda going on. I can tell from ur comment u are not happy to see a somali dude come up and trying to be somebody talking about he stole some beats. when did old ethipian songs had hip hop beats....come on man the nega a break. look get used to it mother fucker he is a somali so what and u are ethiopian if u dont like him go find urself an ethiopian artist nobody is forcing u to listen to him. but dont try sell that shit.

[silkessence19]

Okay, well I'm sorry I called you a prick. You're right though, I think a lot us of us are not that educated in our history, and don't want to listen...

[thegreatgreekkidlolo]

it dont even matter if he stole music or not. the dude got talent on the mic and plus everyone else steals music in todays music no one even cares ne more.

[ethi0s]

Knaan Good music but you have yet to explain when and how you will credit the owner of the beats which are used on most of your songs. When Knaan? We appreciate your music and the fact that your introducing East African Music to the World but its not right that you don't even mention them and you present their work as your own. Please give credit.

[oamaer]

Ethios, what are you talkin about? Knaan did not stole beats. stop virus dude.

[TheSoundCrate]

its called sampling

kanye west songs to dont say featuring

[Eneyebene]

He gives full credit... please stop this ppl... and I am Habesha too.

[hurlockbros]

he did sample this beat if you look up knaan vs nardwur he gives the song its cred.

[aman1844]

Great work. I will def. buy this album. Am Ethiopian but I don't understand why people are just commenting bad things abt Ethiopia. I believe he should give credit where it's due. What he did won't stop me from buying his album. Simple as that.

This dude is good.

But doesn't also look good for him that he is using other's work in his music.

Am not an expert on copy rights but is giving credit enough? or there is more to it?

Keep the good work K'nnan!

Your Ethiopian fan.

[multiyapples]

shouldnt we all be listening to him instead of worrying if he stole some1 else music.

[darksider27]

If you got enough time in your life to spend it on youtube complaining about whether some artist stole music from nobodies two or more decades ago, you really need to GET A LIFE. And if it matters THAT much to you, that's why class action lawsuits EXIST, jump on board one. Meanwhile people with common sense will continue to listen to this song and enjoy it. Check out Dreamer and The Beginning too, they are pretty much his best songs. At least he raps bout real shit instead of hoes and drink.

[DeMangoz]

this is the Andre 3000 of this era, lets just listen to this guys music make our ears bleed truth and life.

its funny how every time when somali or somalians are on top ethopieans have som
