New lyric video for K'NAAN's "Coming to America", off the latest More Beautiful Than Silence EP. iTunes: More Beautiful Than Silence - EP - K'naan

Following the large wave of critical acclaim, international commercial success and top accolade-garnering that met his last album, 20102s Troubador , and it's mega-huge (and endlessly remixed) global anthem single "Wavin' Flag" , Somali-Canadian hip hop musician K'naan makes his return to the new music section with new EP release More Beautiful Than Silence , a five-cut set boasting appearances from Nas and Nelly Furtado, and a stand-out track in "Coming To America", a catchy, but most importantly compelling , narrative tracking K's venture across the [...]

• K'naan - Coming To America

Filed under: News Getty Images (2) Mitt Romney, the current frontrunner in the Republican's endless -- and endlessly nasty -- presidential primary, has spent the past few months throwing red meat at the party base. One of America's richest men, he's been arguing for lower corporate taxes and more military spending while stoking anti-immigrant jingoism. So it makes sense, then, that in his Florida primary victory, Romney's people would blast the patriotic song 'Wavin' Flag.' Except, [...]

K'NAAN's new EP, More Beautiful Than Silence, is available now on iTunes . He has also released this new video for "Is Anybody Out There" featuring Nelly Furtado.

Our review of the stellar new collection of Bob Dylan covers in support of Amnesty International.

It has been more than a minute — nearly six years, in fact — since Nelly Furtado released an album full of radio-friendly pop tracks . And until this summer rolls around, when she's supposedly going to bring out her next LP, T.S.I. , we can at least tide ourselves over with "Is Anybody Out There", her collaboration with K'naan for his new EP More Beautiful Than Silenc e (out tomorrow). Yes, Nelly — there are people out here, and they're waiting for your new jams. So haul it! The [...]

Hear a new track off the Somalian rapper's upcoming EP .

Having been fairly quiet since the CoS Top Star-earning Troubadour and subsequently becoming the voice of the 2010 World Cup , Somalian-born, Toronto-bred rapper K'naan is set to unleash his new EP, More Beautiful Than Silence , on January 24th via A&M/Octone Records. As an early taste, check out the track called "Nothing to Lose", which features a cameo from Nas. It's a simple beat with an uplifting and singable chorus, and sees K'naan make pretty slippery use of the "em" sound as a rhyme-end (verse three, for the eagerly-eared). Watch [...]

Next Tuesday (1/24) K'NAAN will unveil his new EP More Beautiful Than Silence to the masses courtesy of A&M Octone. Yesterday we received our first taste of the EP on Complex Mag in the form of the first single, "Nothing To Lose," which features the legendary Nas. The smali rapper also has a new full length in the works and is slated for a Spring 2012 release. More details about the upcoming album are on their way, so check back here for details.

You know how fast the blog world can move. I was really into Somali-Canadian rapper/singer K'NAAN & J. Period's The Messenger series, then kind of stopped paying attention. Apparently K'NAAN did the 2010 World Cup anthem, but I can't be troubled by things like Futbol. As far as I'm concerned, K'NAAN is back with 'Nothing To Lose' alongside (my Queensbridge homey) Nas. Check out a lyric video for the track & the tracklist to K'NAAN's upcoming EP More Beautiful Than Silence below: [...]

While everyone's favorite Somali Canadian artist has been relatively quiet the past year, he has been hard at work on his upcoming More Beautiful Than Silence EP. Of course, he did have a nice run from his work with J.Period , as well as that huge World Cup 2010 look, but we have been patiently waiting for that follow-up to the 2009 Troubadour LP from K'naan all along. One of the tracks featured on the EP is the Nas assisted "Nothing To Lose", a perfect balance of hip-hop and pop if you ask [...]

After first collaborating with Nas on his Distant Relatives EP, K'naan and Nas are back at again with "Nothing to Lose." Both artists are known spitting some meaningful lyrics, despite reppin' to different homelands. To help ya'll understand, the video is literally lyrical. Take a look here and be sure to check K'naan when his More Beautiful Than Silence EP is released Jan 24th. K'naan | WEBSITE | FACEBOOK | TWITTER

"Yes he's a Fugee, but he go all Nas on'em." In case you were wondering where K'NAAN's been, he's been working. On January 24th, K'Naan will release a new EP by the name of More Beautiful Than Silence. He kicks it off with this new one, "Nothing To Lose", featuring Nas. The song is part bare-bones narrative before the anthem-ready chorus drops. I'm a big K'Naan fan. This interview I did with K'NAAN in '08 , was one RH's first. via Complex

K'NAAN's been a favorite of mine for a bit now - and it was pretty obvious that he was well on his way to success with the release of his last album Troubador. Once he landed "Wavin' Flag" as the official theme song of the 2010 World Cup, it was a wrap. Since then, he's been quietly working on more material, and our first look at what he's got up his sleeve comes in the form of "Nothing To Lose". He has a little 5-track EP coming out next Tuesday (1/24) titled More Beautiful Than Silence, and this is our [...]
