Personally, I believe Exit is the best blend of hiphop and r&b I've ever heard next to Lauryn Hill's album. But K-Os, as an artist, is just that; an artist.
The Joyful Rebellion has a title that speaks for itself. Protest garbage music and garbage ideals, but do it in a way of beautiful self expression. If you don't know about K-Os, then be enlightened. The Toronto emcee/singer/guitarist/bboy/producer is a musical genius. Truth.   Discuss.

From beginning to end, his albums are as musical as they come.

The only two songs I've heard from him are "Superstar Pt. Zero" and "B-Boy Stance" but from what I've heard, he sounds good.

MTV on one show of theirs, i forgot what it was, did a segment on K-os.
Hes really good. When they first did the segement i wanted to DL some of his songs, but then I forgot about him, remembered him a few times but forgot again, until now. |

^ If that's a picture of him in his signature, he looks like the guy from that Nike/Addidas commerical in which the people in it wore warrior masks and possesed animal predator-like powers.

I am MF Doom, the villain of the rap industry. I've worked with intellectuals such as De La Soul and Talib Kweli and even the rawest of gangsters like Ghostface Killah and Nas.
