Troubadour, in a word, delivers. Lyrically, the Somali ex-pat out-rhymes the majority of his native English-speaking counterparts with a mix of violent personal history and charismatic uplift, the occasional melodic chorus, and a voice that’s fairly compared to Eminem’s but more accurately recalls the upper-register nasality of Pharcyde’s Booty Brown. Pop-leaning cuts like “Dreamers” and “15 Minutes Away” duck in and out of instrumentals that borrow from Afrobeat (“Fire in Freetown”), a world/soul sound that hits its apex in the gorgeous “Wavin’ Flag,” and hip-hop’s best use yet of a Bob Marley sample (opener “T.I.A.”). Recorded at Marley’s legendary Tuff Gong studio in Jamaica, the album gets a heavy dose of collaborative energy from such diverse contributors as Mos Def, Chubb Rock, Maroon 5’s Adam Levine (“Bang Bang”), and Metallica’s Kirk Hammett (“If Rap Gets Jealous”). In a year that has already seen an early girth of really strong rap releases that eschew the superficial violence, misogyny, and inanity of most radio fare, Troubadour stands as a front-runner for Hip-Hop Album of the Year. --Jason Kirk
　　About the Artist
　　The name alone conjures up images of unbridled destruction, merciless warlords and ruthless terror. A place where nobody--children, the elderly, religious figures--is safe from the atrocities of war, and where the idea of "childhood," where 8-year olds handle AK-47s like toys, exists in chronological terms alone. When Forbes magazine recently unveiled their "Most Dangerous Destinations," Somalia--above Iraq and Afghanistan--topped the list.
　　But it's also "The Nation of Poets," where a poem can both inspire peace and end wars. Where every weekend, regardless of the climate, one can find a play or concert at a local theatre.
　　Growing up, it was both of these Somalias that informed musician/emcee K'naan Warsame, whose sophomore album, Troubadour, is released this February. The grandson of Haji Mohamed, one of Somalia's most famous poets, and nephew of famed Somali singer Magool, the emcee is creating his own musical path through reggae, funk, pop, soul and, above all, hip-hop.
　　Recorded primarily in Kingston, Jamaica, at the legendary Tuff Gong studios and Bob Marley's home studio, Troubadour is a hip-hop album like no other. With contributions by Damian Marley, Mos Def, Chubb Rock, Vernon Reid, and Adam Levine (Maroon 5), K'naan successfully blends samples and live instrumentation for a sound that's rooted in both traditional African melodies and the classic hip-hop tradition.
　　It would be easy to brand K'naan with the "political rapper" tag. But that'd be both easy and disingenuous. K'naan's lyrics lie in stark contrast to emcees that use their medium as a pulpit to promote their beliefs. "My job is to write just what I see / So a visual stenographer is who I be," he rhymes in "I Come Prepared." Doubtless, K'naan is not without his opinions, but songwriting always comes before sermons.
　　On Troubadour, events like these don't need to be glorified or exaggerated for the sake of art. "I think there are some people that are struggling in 'hoods [in Canada and America], but it is so much harder and so much more violent [in Somalia]," says K'naan. "If you want to be like, 'I'm from the hood. We got it rough. We got gats,' I think you should know the alternative exists. I'm speaking in the same language of hip-hop which decidedly speaks about rough neighborhoods. So if there is a place for rough neighborhoods, then here comes the Mother of Rough Neighborhoods."
　　Troubadour represents the sum of these experiences and more. Having spent the better part of the last two years on the road, soaking in everything from Bob Dylan to Fela Kuti to Talib Kweli, K'naan here releases the sonic document of an artist who has a lot to share now, but clearly a lot more to come. For anyone who's said that hip-hop has nothing left to say, Troubadour proves that it all depends on where you look.
　　Product Description
　　2009 release. Recorded primarily in Kingston, Jamaica where K'Naan was granted unprecedented access by his friends Stephen and Damian Marley to their father Bob Marley's original home studio at 56 Hope Road and the legendary Tuff Gong studios Troubadour is a Hip Hop album like no other. K'Naan successfully blends samples and live instrumentation for a sound that's both rooted in traditional African melodies and the classic Hip Hop tradition. Features Kirk Hammett of Metallica on the song 'If Rap Gets Jealous'.

从脏脚哲人到游吟诗人，你到底花了多少时间？缘起在于无意间在itunes为手机订阅节目，npr的tiny desk concert中这个戴着小草帽的家伙跟着两个胖兄弟唱起了wavin' flag, take a minute, fatima等歌，设备很糙，样子也颇紧张，似乎也无大家风范，但是着实打动了我，除了优秀的旋... (展开)

Wavin' flag

这首歌是我在NBA2K10里听到的，觉得还不错。后来一搜歌词果然很赞，而且还被选为 2010的世界杯主题曲。不过感觉原版更好听。以下为歌曲介绍： ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 索马里裔嘻哈歌手K'naan的歌曲《飘扬的旗帜》... (展开)

小小胡子男的2010世界杯

2010年的世界杯赛将6月在南非举办。南非世界杯组委会宣布，索马里裔加拿大歌手柯南（K'Naan）创作并演唱的《旗帜飘扬》被选为本届世界杯的主题歌。这首歌曲由于歌颂自由、平等和爱，且带有浓郁的非洲气息，因此受到南非世界杯组委会的青睐。现居加拿大的柯南出生于索马里的艺... (展开)

深沉的Rapper

K‘naan在索马里出生成长，十三岁时一路从索马里逃难到美国再到加拿大，这样的成长经历让他的rap不是只有耍嘴皮子的痛快，还有深重的内涵，深切的感情。 (展开)

音乐诗人！

虽然说不喜欢饶舌，但发现一个非美国出生的黑人，而且是索马里的，于是就听了下~ 碰巧他还写了Wavin flag~ 这曲大爱呢！当然Cocacola版本的最喜欢~ 为此还去iTunes上面买了一张l... 怎么说，挺全能的！至少歌词不会像一般的饶舌简直胡扯，有诗人的感觉至少有爱 (展开)

吟游诗人可是游戏里很重要的角色！

首先很喜欢Troubadour这个单词，吟游诗人。再来Wavin' Flag：celebration mix版本得感谢天下足球、不然我肯定要等到611才能发现这首歌了。天下足球也真可爱，title多抓人的前奏啊！明明是去看伊瓜因的，结果还没看到主持人就坐到电脑前搜歌了，看看，这就是效率。 Troubadour... (展开)
