Songs that stand out for me in this album are: Fatima, Somalia, People Like Me and Take a Minute. His lyrics definitely have substance and I do feel like he is just telling his story rather than capitilazing on the fact that he's from Somalia. Overall, I suggest this album to anyone who is looking for some good music :)<ul></ul> Trobadour is an awesome album.

Overall, I suggest this album to anyone who is looking for some good music :)

All I hear is pop music, and that's something I cannot get past. Plus, the whole Ragga thing, it may work for Damien, but here it feels corny. That's just my opinion. Oh BTW, I'm from Africa.<ul></ul> Just put this album on again and- nope, still don’t feel it. All I hear is pop music, and that’s something I cannot get past.

K'naan is one of the most intelligent lyricist ever... The song 'If Rap Gets Jealous' was much better on the original OST it has to be said. Anyone know where to download the two additional tracks 'Biscuit' and 'Does It Really Matter'? Can't find them anywhere...<ul></ul> Agreed entirely… K’naan is one of the most intelligent lyricist ever… The song ‘If Rap Gets Jealous’ was much better on the original OST it has to be said.
