Chimera Posted November 1, 2010 AP: How do you instill Somalia in your two young boys since you aren’t there? K’naan: It’s kind of hard to do that. They learn important values from me and their mom (who is Somalian) ... which I think is culture. But I think to get the complete package, to get the complete feeling, they’d have to live in Somalia, and at some point I hope they can. -Full Interview I didn't know he was married and had two kids.

Chimera Posted November 1, 2010 LOL, they are pushing him into that position, he said that himself: AP: Is it still hard for you to break into the American hip-hop scene because you’re not rapping about rims? K’naan: It was very hard. And it’s easier now but it’s still hard. It’s easier now because Jay-Z likes me (laughs) and Nas calls me great on YouTube videos. ... But sometimes I’m very tempted ... to take on that world in that language, in the language of the streets. ... Some artists actually really want me to do that.
