Effortless and unselfconsciously cool new single from Canadian indie hip hop artist, K-OS
Review
Admit it, you read that and thought 'me too' right?
Well whether you did or didn't (and she was great in 'Leon') it is a catchy title. So my next question is can Canadian rapper and multi instrumentalist K-OS deliver and fulfil his goal of "re-establishing himself at the forefront of indie hip hop"?
At first listen it is certainly accessible and it feels like a lot of people jamming in a studio. The vocal variety make sit interesting. There is a nice lyrical nod to Prince's 'When Doves Cry' and no mention of the luminous Ms Portman though. K-OS is where The Black Eyed Peas want to be, effortless and unselfconscious cool.
