K’Naan performs his cur live in the Twin Cities. Props to Peter Parker on the heads up.

Mr. Peter Parker talks with K’naan about Troubadour. K’naan also talks about how he was influenced by nas and what its like for the greats to show him so much love. Mr. Peter Parker Present How Hard Do You Hustle Vol. 8: K’naan Live In Minneapolis drops August 12th.

That’s all fine and dandy, but Peter also said that Vol. 7 of his How Hard Do You Hustle series is a spotlight on super-underrated producer Nottz (Nottz’ work on Rah Digga’s Dirty Harriet > your life), and that drops this Tuesday. Part 3 after the jump…

Peter Parker chops it up with K’naan about how he feels being the first big Somalia artist and what Michael Jackson meant to him. Look out for Mr. Peter Parker presents How Hard Do You Hustle v.8: K’naan Live in MPLS, which drops August 12th!

It’s The Cons and K’Naan do their thing on Green Lantern’s Invasion Radio.

At this year’s Rock the Bells opener, DJ Z goes backstage with fan favorite K’naan to discuss the selection of “Wavin’ Flag” as South Africa’s World Cup anthem, his forthcoming mixtape projects (created with the help of a few very exciting collaborators), and which company supplies him with his trademark fedoras. Troubadour, is available now in stores and online.

I usually don’t post videos from people who can’t send me a link for the shit itself, but since it’s a relatively slow day – not to mention the fact I’m in a somewhat chipper mood – I’ll make an exception. Here’s some footage Mike Duce provided of K’Naan performing at a Montreal Apple Store.

I’m tired as shit right now. So enjoy this mixtape and not my snarky commentary.

K’Naan sits down to talk about influences from Bob Dylan to Bob Marley, how Somalia’s struggles affect him on a daily basis and why he made his record label wait two years to sign him.

Since his album leaked, I’ll drop one last joint off K’naan’s Troubadour; which you need to cop on February 24th! Featuring Mighty Mos and Chali 2na.

During K’Naan’s visit to the Chi this past weekend, he chopped it up with RubyHornet about his new album (Troubador), embracing his fans and how he’d like to classify his music.

Off their upcoming album Where The Streets Have No Name.
