K’naan is readying the digital More Beautiful Than Silence EP, a follow-up release to his 2010 World Cup anthem “Wavin’ Flag.” K’naan called on some good company for the new batch of tunes, with both Nas and Nelly Furtado making appearances on separate songs on the EP. Watch a clip for the Nasir-featuring cut “Nothing To Lose,” where K’naan raps rocks, chucks and [...]

The dynamical duo of Pan-African upliftment, Nas & Damian Marley are back with the next video from the Distant Relatives project. “The Land of Promise” happens to be one of my personal joints from the album–maybe the track where the rap, the reggae vibes and the whole United States of Africa theme best come together as one, [...]

Nas & Damian Marley – Patience

A little biblical for my taste, but a solid song and all-star collabo.

Merry Christmas to everyone. Here is a gift from Don Cannon, Cookin’ Soul, and Nas. Nas said Lost Tapes 2 will be out in December, well… we don’t know if he will deliver or not. But we’ve put together one of our best works to date. When Don Cannon and Cookin’ Soul get together = #classicmaterial. Remember the last [...]

One of the best quotes is Nas’ take on Lil Wayne being absent from Hip-Hop… I have to agree, I think the whole industry is just getting over the hump of being totally used to him.  It’s refreshing not to have him EVERYWHERE all the time, some new fresh talents are really getting a share [...]

Last night was the kick-off of K’naan and Wale’s tour at Irving Plaza in NYC. As you’d expect K’naan was definitely the highlight of the night. Last night he owned the headlining spot (Wale and K’naan will flip-flop as headliners throughout this tour). In addition to these two Emcees, the tour includes DC native Tabi [...]
