Joyfull Rebellion - K-OS

Exit blew me away. A canadian MC with the lyrics, rythm , and soul of some of the greats. Instantly he became my favorite Canadian rapper, and I compare most local acts against him.
Needless to say I was really excited for his new CD, and it didn't dissapoint. Joyfull Rebellion is a beautiful series of music , that crosses every genre, sounding almost like a jazz acid fusion with hiphop. The two singles out now were excellent choices because they summarize the album quite well.
B-Boy is a great old school beat, with tons of interesting elements clashing against each other. Crabbucket sounds like a jazz band mixing with mo-town flo, great lyrics.

Great job K-Os, still n.1 in my books.
