k-os On George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight: EXTENDED INTERVIEW
Ойын-сауық
www.cbc.ca/strombo/
So Kevin Brereton, aka k-os, was in the red chair to talk about his new double album, 'BLack on BLonde', recording at Hayden Christensen's mansion, and some of the artists he collaborated with for the new record (hint: one of them's George!).
But we couldn't fit all the awesome into the interview that went to air, so here's the complete and uncut chat, featuring some Drake talk, a little cameo from Sarah Harmer, k-os discussing Fred Penner and 'The Cat Came Back', and some discussion about what it was like to play hockey as a young black man in Ontario.
George Stroumboulopoulos Tonight airs Weeknights at 7 PM on CBC Television

The best emcee out of canada. So creative and unique. A true lyricist.
I need to see this guy live some time, his lyrics and music resonates with my worldview and I dig it!

He's amazing live, I met him a few years ago... best performer in Canada. Seriously!
what a sick interview one of the best tv interviewers in canada george stroumboulopoulos and one of the best canadian musicians in k-os
i have every k-os album ever made. he is my king big fan, love his music
love this man
All of your albums are exceptional... MY favorite album was Alantis the seekQwell.... maybe I set the title wrong but that album was one of my favorite is albums it got me through a lot of change and things I needed to understand in to understand the things I can figure out or change in to move on and respect that decision
I feel as though he is brilliant. He is brilliant.
Such a joy to see K-OS at Dalhousie in the 00’s! Blessings!
i love this man
Very underrated, where are you k-os?
Love K-os. I like how he came in with the low hand to do a traditional handshake. I do the same to avoid a hand cluster that you're just not sure when to end.
Woah I was at that concert with fred penner and kos! Although it was at mt royal not u of c. Great concert thought!
k-os is the man! keep it up my man.
Maaan Watching this and his Isis Essery interview WHERE is this magical place where these interviewers really understand music, historically, culturally, and artistically? This is dope
Hopefully K-os recovers from falling off. Atlantis was the last solid album.

Did you listen to Yes! ? That was the best album of that year imo and Black on Blonde was underrated also. He's been making good music for awhile. Hope his new project is just as good.

+Hobomedic1 Yes! is his last amazing album. BLack on BLonde has some cool songs, but a fair amount of filler. Can't Fly Without Gravity is fun, but not particularly memorable. I think k-os' first 4 albums are classics, man. Give Yes! a chance.

Yeah I agree, Atlantis was his last truly classic album. Yes! has it's moments but doesn't really stand up to his first three albums. Black in Blonde was just two albums of filler and his new album has some cool tracks but not really that memorable.
I love this man! This. Is. A. True. Artist!!
AGREED, call me is still on play for me, years later
Can't wait for the Winnipeg show.
***DEAR K-OS, PLEASE RELEASE 'MUSICAL ESSENCE' ON A CD, BEEN LOOKING FOR IT FOR 15 YEARS!!!!!!!***
Awesome reference of truth to RPM being the original name of The Guvernment nightclub in Toronto (hailed just before The OZ). Such a crazy change to house music go'ers nowadays.
... When is his album coming out??? It's there in hand, but no one said when the album is coming out. :S
No Joke.
LOL! Classic!
SOLID HUMAN ;)
ANTHRAX & PUBLIC ENEMY! k-os is so cool.
This interview to the performer is Canadian and this what were missing
I can't believe he's 40!
What was the comment ?
what was the comment ???

12:05 Channeling LA a lot Sounds like someone's name or some really old foreign slang
It's out...
Um ... the definition of musician(s) is a person who plays an instrument ... not a varied range of instruments. So again a musician knows not just how to play, but can adapt to play the particular instrument well. Although a Violin and a Guitar are both technically string instruments their played completely different. You can take a bow from a viola/violin on a guitar which'll show off your musician skills as a guitarist (Steve Vai Whitesnake album recording) but doesn't mean u can play violin.
perfectionists would rather not play than do dis-justice to their work. or he was trying to play hard to get and it didn't work.
Nice interview but why can't he play the guitar if hes a musician?
that's exactly it. musicians are Not "guitarists". If you hand a guitar to a violinist- then he wont know how to play on it. But if you hand out a guitar to a Musician- then hell be able to make sweet sounds out of it...and many other instruments. An acoustic guitar- being the most basic one. So...
LOVE GEORGE!! and as for k-os .. i used to love him to death until he made a sexist comment at a show. at a university, too.
Black on Blonde. He can't explain the title? It's simple. He watched a porn called blacks on blondes and that inspired the name of his album. Hahahaha
Who sais being a musician you need to play just one instrument or the guitar?? Are you ignorant to musical instruments??
super ignorant. in the 50's, 60's, probably even today there were classical musicians asking the same thing of rock stars. "that's not music, why can't they play real instruments." "no talent!", etc. musicians are musicians because they make music. hip-hop is music. musicians are not musicians because they play guitar.
