HIS SONGS GIVE MEANING TO MY EXISTENCE ON EARTH
Interview
He’s a superstar from
Somalia and a global hip-hop sensation. His song "Wavin’ Flag" spread
around the world as Coca-Cola's anthem during the 2010 FIFA World Cup. Keinan Abdi
Warsame, better known as K’Naan, has been compared to Eminem and Bob Marley.
Strongly influenced by his native country, his socially conscious lyrics stem
from life as a refugee and memories of civil war. Now his forthcoming album has
a new tune and different messages on life and love. This week on African
Voices, Isha Sesay sits down with K’Naan. He shares a private performance and
his journey for poetic justice.
