Emmanuel from Paris, France
Just to reassure anyone afraid the praise for him might be biased, I've nothing to do with Somalia nor had I ever particularly even spared a thought for it, but I still think he is one of the best rappers I've ever heard. Very good job, it's so refreshing to hear rap lyrics which actually have meaning.

it is good to see an Artist that not only talk about life but taking that massege to the world is more difficult, also learning new language is not easy so k'naan is unique his style his sound his story telling and amazing live perfomances. above all his abilty as indiviual to survive as a Refugee & as an Artist K'naan u raise above the rest and pass the test to tell u'r tales. well done great work beautifful sound melody and true stories.that is the dust foot philosepherDhalad

Our family - ranging in age from 17-53- has been nearly constantly playing K'Naan's cd since we got it almost two years ago. It hasn't lost even a fraction of its impact on us, despite how often (and loud!) we play it. utterly compelling.

K'Naan is a stunning example of lyrical brilliance, intellectual sharpness and sophisticated self-expression. He is an inspiration.

Ever thought of writing and singing one of your philosophical songs in somali to get the message of peace,love and unity across to a wider audience at home and in the diaspora.

Here, we have the kind of artist Hip-Hop needs to inject some much needed enthusiasm. He combines eloquence and meaning into his lyrics, add that to the reality he raps about and you have a real singer in the making. Bravo to him!

Lara, London

I'm not of the hip hop age but I know a good sound when I hear it.I saw the video he shot in Nairobi, then I couldn't trace him. I'm thrilled he has 're-surfaced' AND on the World music stage.

Terrific. Vigorous. Resourceful.

Nasir from London, UK
Without sounding bias because most people would say that because I am a fellow Somalian, nonetheless I truly beleive K'naan is gifted individual without a shadow of a doubt simply by listening to his rhymes and the discriptive pictures he draws I am finding myself in memory lanes as a recall things were chaos back at that particular time he was fleeing because I was born and grown up in Mogadishu as well and to think back how life was before all this mayhem started one can't help getting emotional for the simple reason that I never thought I would be living outside my country for such a long time but I guess God (Allah) makes all decisions. Without further due I like to give my at most respect to K'naan whom I share one thing, which is a true admiration for Rakim and Nas the two undisputed lyricist of all time well that's my opinion.
