K-os YES!

Friday, June 6th, 2008 | News

Canadian emcee K-os is set to release his new album entitled YES! in 2008. An amazing emcee with a reputation for innovation, K-os repeatedly reinvents his style as an musician, songwriter, singer, and super producer. In his own words the album includes “break beats – strings- tabla’s- and keyboard wizardy to be exposed..” an offer he is sure to deliver on.

Weaving Rock’n’Roll and Hip Hop with a string of different styles and production techniques seemlessly allows K-os to captivate audiences winning six Canadian Urban Music awards, a Source award, and a Grammy nomination along the way among many more

K-os – Man I Used To Be

Originally standing for “Kheavens Original Sound”, K-os now goes by the name “Knowledge of Self” making sense having enjoyed his poetry rap art of story since his first release in 2002 “Exit”. In 1996 Despite receiving an offer from BMG, k-os shyed away from the music business later saying that at this point in his career he had several albums finished, but was dissatisfied with his music. K-os labelled his music “pretentious and derivative,” and said he was “still trying to figure out who he was.” I guess he worked it out huh…

I’ve been listening to it a bit, not really sure what i think yet, all i know is it’s not what i was expecting. there’s a lot more short snappy and hook tracks then his last albums, but im’a give it a few weeks till i have a solid opinion. as always there’s some pretty interesting idea’s in it, and some dope fretless bass …bs
