K-os !?

does anyone know much about this guy i heard a couple of songs by him, superstar part zero and his new one crabbuckit and i like both those tracks, but i've never heard anything about him, he kinda sounds a bit like q-tip !

Actually he's been around since the early 90's. Check for his song "Musical Essence" from that period, very dope stuff.

I've been hearing nuttin but good things about his album, but i still havent copped it yet. He has been out for a good minute, but i gotta big him up cuz he reps Tdot (toronto) still.

He a very talented artist with a great message. His style is close to Mos Def, Talib Kweli and Outkast... it's a great listen, but you have to be open minded to other styles of music to apreciate it, cuz the cat likes to experiment a lot and he has that old school breakbeat flav he likes a lot (like superstar part zero)

Canada's up in here!!!

 

[MarkN]

yea i woz thinking of checking out his album, his new track crabbuckit is kewl ! i did some reading up on him and yea turns out hes from canada see you do have some good artists lol

 

[boabmatic]

there is a great remix of his track 'heaven only knows' that uses a speeded up sample of ice cube's 'it was a good day'

not heard a bad track from him...(yet)

 

[O-H-TEN]

Dude is nice wit' his! Nice different style of music. I've only heard a few cuts from him but I've liked everything I've heard so far. I'll be getting the album also. Word is bond tho' when I first saw that crabbuckit video I thought that my man from Black Eyed Peas had went solo or somethin'. LOL!

I couldnt agree more...Canada has madd talent but none of these labels wanna invest any money into Canadian artists. They want to keep the money within their own economy, promote their own artists, and basically fuck everyone else. Even the dudes in Canada who do have major label deals get no promotion budget, their albums come out, flop, then they get dropped...I can't wait for someone from Toronto blows the fuck up like 50 or Em did...Put us on the map, and put some of us on. Hopefully in a few years I'll be in a position to put some of the Canadian talent on!! Watch out!!

That track is sick... lookin for that 12", its like super rare... my boy has that on an old toronto mixtape...

K-Os has 2 albums out, Exit is his first one and his second one is Joyful Rebellion which was released in 2004. Cop both albums if you have a chance, they're both good. Another song I'm diggin from his new album is "the man I used to be"...
