Not sure, but that song has been viewed over 7 million times ... <g> I'd never heard of him til last night, when I saw him interviewed on that Canadian show I was telling you about a while back ... a very interesting guy, though: >>K'naan became a friend and associate of Canadian promoter Sol Guy, who helped him secure a speaking engagement before the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees in 1999, where K'naan performed a spoken word piece criticizing the UN for its failed aid missions to Somalia.[9] One of the audience members, Senegalese singer Youssou N'Dour, was so impressed by the young MC's performance and courage that he invited him to contribute to his 2001 album Building Bridges, a project through which K'naan was able to tour the world.<< en.wikipedia.org Anyway, why I posted it, that song has been chosen as the official anthem of the World Cup or something, so 3 or 4 billion people will soon be hearing it ... just thought you should be ahead of the curve. <g>
