(It just takes a few seconds and is relatively painless).
We realize the term "World Music" is very broad (and to be honest, we like it that way). With that in mind, we will be very open-minded in allowing content to be added to our website. We will delete content for commercial rock, pop, country and other acts that drastically misrepresent our musical genre. We also ask that you be responsible to make sure the content you add is accurate. We also ask that you don't add any content that you don't own the rights to. We will delete any content at the request of the rights holder. We will also delete any porn or spam content. Please keep your content to a reasonable length. We will be very liberal in our judgment, but we do reserve the right to edit content when needed and de-activate members when absolutely necessary.
You can help us keep or community focused and accurate. Please report any dead links, incorrect information or suspect content to

K'Naan
Born in Mogadishu, Somalia, just as the civil unrest that rocked the country was beginning, rapper K'NAAN spent the early years of his life trying to avoid death and listening to the hip-hop records sent to him from America by his father, who had left Somalia earlier. When K'NAAN (whose name means "traveler" in Somali) was 13, he, his mother, and his two siblings were able to leave their homeland and join relatives in Harlem, where they stayed briefly before moving to Rexdale, Ontario, where there was a large Somali community.
