Video: K'Naan "T.I.A."

Posted by Shamz on



K'Naan is doing big things, premiering his latest video for "T.I.A."  (This Is Africa) on Yeezy's blog. K shows maaad love for Africa in this dope NABIL directed video. Everyone loves to talk about making that trip to the motherland, but never go through with it. If it's within your means I HIGHLY suggest making that move. K'Naan's Troubadour is in stores now.

check that 'water' track dirt-e dutch dropped on indiefeed, that was the first time i heard K'Naan and he delivers fresh time on time... i think that's what Dutch said that K'Naan started rappin a long to his favourite rappers on the streets of Somalia even before he spoke English... worthy!

This for real. here in my hood,people are killing other because of 100 kwanza(1 dolar), not for eat but to smoke a cigarrete to forget the misery running his life. donations of O.N.U. Forget that,they heaven now if you exist. I see this everyday with my eyes, and is not easy. The mtv here don´t pass k´naan because is the true.and sometimes the true heart somebody´s.
