Plenty of cats proclaim to carry their city on their backs, a lofty idea to say the least. Then we have Somalian born rapper K’Naan who doesn’t wave his country’s flag as a rallying point/calling card but is aware that he’s one of the international voices of his homeland. And when we think of Somalia, pirates, ransoms & making sure to tell travel agent it’s a destination we’d like to avoid.

With all of that in mind, K’Naan brings CuDi’s hit down from gallatic regions to terra firma, grounded in current events explaining the despair that a poverty stricken resident might experience that leads to ship-jacking.
