  • @dethreveng huh?

  • @jamrock1ful

    nigga ur an idiot... just a ignorant piece of shit.

  • @jamrock1ful im guessing your 12 years old arent you??

  • @jamrock1ful nice u racist piece of trash

  • @jamrock1ful i guess the leader of the kkk finally found the internet

  • wow. I think his only bad song is waving flag... XD

  • @pomelloknight WHAT?!?!?!? thats his best

  • @cantocicco1 by best do you mean his worst. all his other songs have meaning, but waving flag is not rap or techno. It is pop. POP! Generic pop. however, I wouldn't have heard of all his wonderful songs if he didn't have 1 pop song that everyone's heard. still though, waving flag is horrible. XD

  • @pomelloknight Yeah...he just horribly misspelled worst... ;P

  • just a great song

  • cohen shut the fuck up

  • ............................ حلوه حلوه

  • @owlcity681 ... Blah Blah Blah.. Blah... Jibberish.

  • @StarsAndStraps4E kill yourself

  • nice Break beat :D

  • There has been a load of good artists recently notably for me K'Naan who has replaced Eminem in my book (who I don't listen to anymore because his songs are seeming far too generic) and Paloma Faith, who is another artist, as said in the comments below sounds great live because she doesn't use any stupid voice enhancing rubbish.

  • Comment removed

  • just saw him live recently, he's incredible live

  • @MsRinseandrepeat thats cause he doesn't use any voice enhancers.

  • Sorry, but to me rap is talentless jibberish. Real talent is when a group of people get together and make music.. A band... That is talent, rap is horrible.

  • @StarsAndStraps4E Rap is beautiful, in its own way, and requires a lot of talent. Things like intonation and accenting are extremely important, unlike many other types of music, where nobody might notice if you mess up a single syllable. This is coming from a choir member, by the way.

  • @aaronwhines Awesome commentary. 

  • @StarsAndStraps4E Also, GOOD rap is much more meaningful than anything else, simply because it demands that more be said. In that respect, artists like K'Naan shine.

  • @aaronwhines no the most meaningful music is tha type tht knaan produces

  • @StarsAndStraps4E if you are saying this is talentless jibberish then you have no musical taste and also you are uneducated and oblivious to the rest of the world. Listen to the lyrics, there is nothing jibberish about it, K'naan is talented and he tells his story and of the issues that are happening in his country.

  • @StarsAndStraps4E Yep, Nsync, Bascksreet Boys, New Kids on the Block, Westlife etc. All better than this. That's why I, like you, came here and searched this musician out!

  • @Revoltingsheeple kill yourself

  • ONE OF THE BEST SONGS EVER.

    Lyrics best.

  • i listen it first at ABDC and now i love it

    (sorry my bad english)

  • 28 Idiots.

    K'naan <3

  • He´s really great :)

  • Genius..............remember he is frm Somalia.....Love from Burco.

  • strange how english is his second language yet lyrically he's better than a lotta the garbage on the radio...

  • @GodsSon987 Ye these rappers with stupid names like Gucci,Yo Gotti are dumb plus when they speak it sounds jiberish cant understand and they just say any ol random thing lol.

  • @sho566SSS umm are you referring to all rappers if so your so wrong! if you think that's real hip hop this is real hip hop. their are many real rappers. THAT make real hip hop. a lot people who like rock think other rock singers that are in the mainstream are't real rockers. most people don't know hip hop so don't judge it. Thumbs up if you agree!

  • @DAnextbest1 I meant to say most rappers.

  • @sho566SSS ohh... yeah thats a big difference.lol sorry. K'naan thumbs up support talented ARTIST!!

  • wow i love this song every othger rappers have no reason to get chicks in videos. I bet the chicks go running to Somalia to K'naan

  • No rapper ever will ever match up to K'naan...not one single rapper...Eminem? Please K'naan is so much better.

  • @Ultimate360Gamerz k'naan is ana amazing artist but i would have to say him and kidcudi and possibly Asher Roth would eb a god hook together

  • this the best song!!

  • cool!!!!!!

    

  • I love K'naan his music is amazing

  • i like this song~~~~

  • K'naan cant be matched to other rappers... hes in another leagues....

    Boy been trough shit and now hes telling an actual story.... so Respect K

  • @RapidK9 he can be matched to other rappers , EMINEM yeah eminem diferent personality but he raps about his life and from when he was a kid up to his age now

  • Vendredi K'naan juste avant Black Eyed peas , sa va être MALADE !

  • @XxJeanGuyxX  ou ca?

  • Knaan I salute you. U R ONE FOR THE HUMANITY.....GOD GIVE U SUCCESS IN LIFE AND TAKE CARE OF THE PEOPLE OF SOMALIA.

  • k'naan is a legend and he's a true rapper i truly believe tht knaan is better then emenim cause evey line knaan says is like a story not some next shit

  • best rapper EVER! screw those american born dickheads

  • this guy should get more plays and credit for his songs

  • why do people think this song is supposed to be happy just becuase it has a fast beat

  • @amilliemillionaire first day on mw2:S what is wrong with you?
