15minutes - 15 dislikes ;[

[keysi07]

I relate to this song so much. when i was in somalia waiting for the money that my brother usd to send .. man , in the end of the month you be broke as fyick , and when hawala(money wiring ) compeny call you and say( we got your money) , you jump like a rabbit speed to hawala place... k`naan is keepin it real ... we love him.

[stewartsg02]

When I first heard this song, I started grinning like a lunatic and dancing in my seat on the subway. I know EXACTLY what it's like to hear those magical words, and I was very pleased that someone is actually talking about issues that affect people and not just about their diamond-encrusted teeth and plastic barbie arm candy.

[frezer330]

15 people are deaf. Or racist. Or just fucking foolish. i want the disliking fucking critics to die. How in any way is this dislikable? i hope they disliked by mistake. Or else...

[MrJordonfoster]

well "frezer330" people are intitled to their own opion although i disagree with the dislike of this song

[Iamjake1000]

@frezer330 Or they did it to get it to 15... Its been 3 weeks have it moved? xD

[emagicz]

How can there be dislikes,.....i really dont get it! :D

[Diamondtv]

I relate to this song so much. K'naan keeps it real. Don't stop giving us real positive music!

[zaradania]

Yeah I hear the Ethiopian Jazz!!!! Eritrea Ethiopia and Somalia loves you!!

[SachinKaundinya1]

Generosity is the Key... :) Man, This is so energetic :)

[wommosh]

im broke like an empty promise.... tight sh** my nigga K'naan is fully reppin th muthaland

[wasinatorr]

"She wants to see my anus", that what I've heard...

[jmjohnson102]

[madman21919]

WHO DISLIKED THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I MEAN REALLY

[mark95427]

@ZhenyANDassociates

lol you're funny.

[ManWithoutFear89]

A modern influential genius at his best as usual :)

[McProZak]

K'naan is a great artist, and has been since way before he landed that world cup contract. The Waving Flag remix was still a sell out tune though, I'd much rather hear this...

[emagicz]

if you dont like the song why do you have to spend your time looking it up just to diss it ? hmmm doesnt seem very smart to me f*#$ u 10 haters leave k'naan out of your mouthes unless you have something good to say. Relax : )

[esam37]

" im broke like an empty promise"

[esam37]

"im broke like an empty promise"

[mkalollmaoiwish]

@abdiCALI , no one can handle 4 woman, in all honest. Gosh these misogynistic comments.

[daagydd]

'Go out n receive it coz I Just know U need it..' ma favorite sing it like Generosity is the key.

[yarka17]

fucking so amazing...i like when he says: ''You finally got a cola, you met him in sarpola a tourist with a dollar, he's some kind of a baller two babies in a stroller, and still he wants to hollar he likes your pepsi-cola, but you aint runnin Lola Brazil aint nothin easy, for velez or fa sheezy the sun would make you dizzy, workin for something measly these girls would make you trust em, and sweetness is the custom, but everyday they hustlin, everyday they hustlin'' <3

[McProZak]

@yarka17 thats not exactly right...it should be: ''You finally got a caller, you met him in sao paolo, a tourist with a dollar, he's some kind of a baller two babies in a stroller, and still he wants to hollar he likes your pepsi-cola, but you aint runnin Lola Brazil aint nothin easy, favelas o fa sheezy"

[yarka17]

@McProZak uf u say so

[runefire261]

man im super sad my gf broke up wid me harshly she said i like someone else and get over it and txting me are u ok and ofcourse i not im gonna forward some raps soon

[ibrahimisda1]

[conain1]

this like short story, and it feel like u r lay on bed and he sitting beside u n tell the story

[TheBaaadOne]

i wish real music like this is on the radio not that retarded sht!!

[TheAbsolQueen]

@TheBaaadOne Oh yes. I completely agree. He's better than 90% of the artists out there!

[JOINTHERESISTANCE1]

@TheBaaadOne In fiji radio they play this type of music everyday, mostly underground independed hiphop and R&B itrs crazy! Not sure what other countrys do this, but i wish that major countrys did this like Australia, usa, Europe etc life would be so much better and less stressful! but they wnat our minds in a twist, its sad times we live in.

[MrJordonfoster]

well unfortunately MOST RADIO STATIONS only fucken care about TALENTLESS POP MUSIC BULL SHIT. They wouldnt even know what real talent is if it were 6 inches away from there fucken head

[ScaredStraightUtube]

@MrJordonfoster i totaly agree man!its all about the money and talent seems to be useless!!

[DeegersOnRs]

Makes me feel so good his music

[halkawtb52]

truthfully !! :D :D

[zbinghi]

genirosity is the key...

@fockya I totally agree with you :)

[Junkeristician]

This man is a master in what he does!

[mrmostarr]

"This month has been the hardest, I couldn't afford some omelettes, I'M BROKE LIKE AN EMPTY PROMESS, sometimes when I'm in a meeting and everyone else is eating, I feel so awkward asking so I pretend like I am fasting"!!!!

he killed that ... man this is so deep, can relate it lol, tis not bullshit bling bling man... talks about real issues with humility this song is pure genious!

[Jayluvsu2]

oh my gawd.. i can relate to this song.. being a IBO born and raised in America. when i lived in my true home for 3 years (Nigeria) surving there was tough but western union saved my life at times.. this song is the story of my life.

[skugl23]

@Jayluvsu2 :) Ditto.

[ShadySouljahv2]

That last verse...

fucking amazing.

[smittycal]

Dope song lol

[VivaLaMente]

haha, aw, his accent comes out when he says 'digits' :] I love this song. Awesome way to end the album.

[playlist64]

-place generic bitchy comment about other rappers here-

[Gareth10Stego]

Like this if you're here because of z8games forums.

( i doubt this will get a lot )

[sak85shaz]

The best song in the world. Knaan the best singer.....Yeah! 'generosity is the key' baby...Love it.

[jugboy222]

Doood, did he just use a rick ross line ahahahahahahahaha doood, siiickk :DD

[CarbonTanso]

true hiphop, so classy. im so happy there good music like this still being produced these days. Shows how hard life is but with a little help and good work ethic you can do anything. Dude lucky to beable to live his dream in music and get a positive word out to the public

[chickenjuice123]

I laughed soo hard when I heard this first, damn

western union is a life saver for some somali's XDD

i can only wonder how happy my folks back there feel when the say

"you can pick it up today it's 15mins away!"

[vegasgrowerprop215]

idk but his african background and have you seen his eyes on performances i think theres a little marijuana influence there but hey you do what you need.

[Bilaldinho1]

K'naan Is Best And Somalia 2 <33333333333333333333333

[hkweli]

big up all immigrants on this one...

[abdi629]

he should have said DHABSHIIL insted of western union..lol

[18faduma]

@abdi629 all people don't know Dahabshiil so may be that is y he chose Western Union.

[habalayo]

@abdi629 i know viva hawaladaha lol

[Hudstahh93xoxo]

@abdi629 LOOOOOOOOOOOL yess, he should of!

[YamaBushi74]

Damn, reminds me of my time living in Africa due to my father's work. It's rare that you can relate to ANYTHING that rappers chat about nowadays. K'naan's like a true breath of fresh air. Someone that goes back to the roots of rap and actually chat's about something meaningful. You cannot compare K'naan with Marley, but I have to say that the lyrical genius of K'naan is easily on the same level of Bob's. Bought all of K'naan's albums, and they were probably the best buys I have made for years

[doreen1982]

You can pick it up today its just 15 minutes away :-) I love knaan. :-)

[callouseduckling]

K'naan is a totally new kind of rap. He's like a less angry Tupac.

[ScaredStraightUtube]

the best artist alive.. fo sho!!!

[MidwayMo]

Isn't it amazing how much better rap is when the lyrics are about real things and not just money, drugs, and sex?

[amasuEnd]

@MidwayMo Yes it is !!:D

[megamaneggaman]

@MidwayMo technically this is about money, its just about why the money is being used.

[leonardo24701]

You are the best ,Luck in your life♀

[TheJonaht]

Nice...

[fockya]

he makes me never wanna drink or smoke again. hes soo high on life. and its not like he came from a good one either.

[SkaterG94]

@fockya This comment just blew my fucking mind man

[MrBUDdha42]

@fockya yo slick. FUCK THAT. i'v been jammin to this for hours and i'm fucked up big time

[l3ravoVids]

@fockya every good muslim dosent drink or smoke. so theirs about 1.3bilion who dont. you know you can quit right?

[albarkhadle]

@l3ravoVids its 1.6 Muslims on this planet. man can drink and smoke and at the same time can be a good human being or good Muslim, christian, Jew or atheist.

[saqibtoofat]

@albarkhadle

Sorry but no... drugs and alcohol are haram in Islam, and also drinking and smoking affects your brain, so you kind of killing your personality.

[albarkhadle]

@saqibtoofat. yes its haram, but by drinking alcohol doesn't mean you are a bad person. and remember to respect the people whether they drink or don't. that is their private life

[l3ravoVids]

@albarkhadle i said good muslim not person. The prophet said not to drink alcohol so in doing that you are not a good muslim. and their are alot of muslims by name so thats why i said about 1.3milion.

[fact0is0fear]

@fockya idk weed is okay with him, but he doesnt do it cause he feels it naturaly

[alulee]

@fockya  It calls Khat! haha

[seth282]

@fockya

I still drink occasionally, but instead of smoking or drinking every day like I used to, I just listen to good music. Like K'naan. Guys like this are the best thing that could happen to the world.

[MurphDVC]

insane ... haha he rymes like crazy ... <3'nnn itttt

[MrGuzman420]

i had been listening to knaan since 2008 thas why when he did the world cup theme song for south africa i couldnt fuckin believe i was juiced

[Bamford88]

its only 15 minutes away

[Deadllama1077]

@Bamford88 loool. Yooooo. XD

[MrBUDdha42]

it's cool when he laughs a little when he say so i pretend that i am fasting... makes it seem like not that big of a deal

[mates000888]

He's GOD!!!



[usama2]

@mates000888 Wrong. And he would likely find that statement misguided. God is All Knowing, All Powerful. Knaan is just a man, a musician.

[MrBUDdha42]

ou haha i'm diggin these tasty beats

[citizenearth1]

U GOTTA ADMIRE HIM.......

[Cosi88]

lol :)))))

[ax974]

DUDE K'naan is alsome, like idk, but yeah love his music

[MultiGogo100]

K'naan is the best



[kachekieran]

wat is k'naan? like hes kinda funky rap im not sure of his genre

[kerrycameron]

@kachekieran On his first CD he has a song that explains where his style comes from. It is technically a form of rap, but it is steeped in a traditional music from africa that is called spoken word. Its really easy to recognize in his first CD that the music is shaped around his words, not the other way around like current generation rappers that create "hip-pop," as K'Naan himself calls it.

[Ethio50]

k' NANA is better than 50 cent, Eminem, JZ....because his songs make sense + have natural melody

[kachekieran]

@Ethio50 in fairness eminem songs make sense, well most of them ha 

[Usrabella]

LOL i LOVE THIS SONG SOOO CAN RELATE TO IT ...KNAAN ROCKSSS

[elisabeth1293]

i don't consider k'naan a rapper, i think of him as a poet that has music to go with his poems

[MegaClassique]

I know what he means. You can pick it up today!!!!!!!!!!!

[BHFac3]

top 3 rapers:

1) 2pac

2) Eminem

3) K'naan

[charlesoffenbacher]

@BHFac3 is that like top 3 rapists? lol. go with 'rappers' next time.

[Xxunpurex]

@charlesoffenbacher LOLOLOLOL.

[TheChangePeople]

@BHFac3 Sorry Dude but I don't think K'naan is a rapper :)

[Dallebo]

@TheChangePeople K'NAAN calls himself a rapper. soo.. he is a rapper

[Ethio50]

this song has a melody

[treecyah]

he's amazing!! i love him!!

[TheChangePeople]

I love K'naan, because he's a really good hip hop artist AND he is singing about the real world and the shit in the world!

[Babyfacedblackjesus]

I know what you mean ma brotha knaan!

[elegance212]

He's MARRIED?!! (says it in the shout-out) noooo, lol i thought i had a chance... haha She's a lucky girl.

[bobby123greenhalgh]

@elegance212 Yeah, cause everything an artist says in their individual peices should be taken literally 100% of the time, always... -.-

[elegance212]

@bobby123greenhalgh well in this case, he IS actually married..

[AishaAbdi091093]

@elegance212 Yes, he has a baby boy! he is 33 btw LOOL :)

[fockya]

@elegance212 fuckin bitches man.

[mnsonya85]

@elegance212 Oh girl...he's Muslim! That means he can have up to 4 wives. It's all good hehehe

[kay62]

@elegance212 I thought so too lol

[BCmountainDriver]

@elegance212 go listen to "In Jamaica" . he mentions his wife in that song as well.

[SolePoetic]

@elegance212 I thought I had a chance too :( Oh weelll, I hope she enjoys him!

[waterandsandslayer]

@elegance212 lol

[Paymenow]

@elegance212

He's actually divorced now.... they got divorced before he did the tour for Coca-Cola.... unfortunately.

[sudanesgal]

@Paymenow how do u know aaaw

[Paymenow]

@sudanesgal

I read an article on it, I felt sorry that it had to go down like that unfortunately.

[childofYah4evaeva]

@elegance212

LOL i know right. gotta love him. his wifey's blessed 

[abdiCALI]

@elegance212  but he 's somalian he can handle 4 woman

[jamalxxx]

[davidcfc7]

I am going to pick up his album today its just 15 minutes away.

[DaveyBoyJustLivin]

K'naan had risen to become one of my favorite all time artists because hes actually raps about something important and his music is just good not computerized just good
