Kano - Home Sweet Home

Having guested at raves and pirate radio stations for five years, he has finally landed with a cracking album that suggests he is a major talent. He has his reflective moments, as on 'How We Livin'', while 'Nobody Don't Dance No More' laments the lack of dancing from the gun-toting types frequenting today's club scene. He's not shy about taking samples from the least obvious sources, either. 'I Don't Know Why' mashes up a Kano rap with some manic scratching and Black Sabbath's classic War Pigs. Warner. 2005.
