Hey K'NAAN!

I'm doing a immigration project for my grade 9 humanities class. I was wondering if you would be in the Calgary area anytime in the next 5-7 months. I was hoping you wouldn't mind coming in to share your experiences as an immigrant to my class.

"I mean, he is -- within the genre of hip-hop and rap, he is what's known as a 'conscience rapper,' or a 'conscious rapper,' rather. And I would quote a report just six months ago from Fox News where he was described as a rap legend and quote, 'Your music is very positive and you're known as the conscious rapper.
