Fam as a Londoner , seeing Kano on flagrant is fucking wild , the fact most people watching this won’t really know how much of a OG legend Kano is , mad love to asshole team for this one 👌👌👌
*Kano is the goat in UK rap* The only originator that never sold out, never sacrificed his art, and always stayed true to himself, his fans and the music.
@@leewebster8964 brother these man are fully irrelevant. They would be irrelevant if they were American too. The recent Kano stuff, nines, Dave, etc. that is rap music that reflects the evolution of the sound and the experiences of people living in London. Boom Bap, high focus type music does not reflect this and sadly will never be relevant.
@@jossbrannigan2429 did not pioneer the genre. He'd be the first to say that. He was one of the early faces of it though. And one of the best to ever do it.
Kano is definitely a smart guy. I think he appears even smarter when you look at the other Grime/Rap artists in the UK who seem quite unintelligent. They try hard to be philosophical while Kano is more natural and answers the questions well.
I could be wrong but I think Kano was being polite laughing and skipping through a fair amount the casual racial comments/jokes. It ain’t like that in London. A melting pot is a melting pot. If everybody stood outside there door on their council estate and you were to stand in the middle you’d almost feel like you were at the centre of a United Nations conference. It’s beautiful
@@ivartheboneless5969 Give him his props. Even knowing that UK rap is from grime and grime is from garage and DnB or jungle etc. was super refreshing to see imo
@@Nooberstein123 yeah he was well educated and done his research. I'm just saying a part of the video was named UK V US so saying there was no UK VS US stuff is completely wrong. Not that it's a bad thing, I enjoyed the whole podcast.
This made me laugh, Kano repeated Garage about 5 times to Mark after he pronounced it Garage, like Nigel Farrage. It seemed like he felt like “are you trying to witty blood”
@@Nooberstein123 US bands come to the UK to make their mark and UK artist have always made a big impression in the US. Only problem is America is to big to be a star like their stars. We are two countries separated by a common language.
I met Kano walking out of Newham General Hospital in East London back 2006-7, me and my fiance used to work there, she had no idea who Kano was - he obliged to a photo request, Kano was very cool and humble. She realises now after Top Boy how much of an OG he was and still is.
barely ever comment on TH-cam but this. this is gold. so great to see Kanos actual thoughts on these different questions. it's like having a convo with him personally and you always wanted to find out what it's like to ask these type of questions. Top Boy performance was mind blowing
Kano legit has the most overlooked music of any rapper ever, he’s so great it’s not even funny, and his last two albums which are well after his prime are both absolute classics in themselves
@@harrym9655 Signs In Life, Brown Eyes, T-shirt Weather In The Manor, This Is The Girl, Bad Boy. There's a few to check out if you are interested mate.
Americans will never quite understand what grime is, it's NOT UK hip hop, the UKHH scene was a completely separate thing and there was little crossover and collaborations between the two. It's really hard to explain what grime is if you didn't grow up with it but the main difference to me would be grime is more about the instrumental, the MC is the accompaniment to the instrumental. In hip hop, it's more about the rap, the instrumental is the accompaniment to the rap. It's more about live pirate radio sets rather than studio tracks, a live DJ mixing the instrumentals and the MCs spitting the bars they have over the live mix.
These podcasts are actually next level, the mix between humour, solid guests and actual questions we want to hear as well as the informal stuff is really working
Nooooooooo freaking way! They got the legend Kano, so unexpected. If you havent watched Top Boy, what are you doing with your life. It's one of the best shows ever
“And when I say it’s Kano in the house everyone knows that’s a reload ting” come on! Legend on the set. Big up Andrew for showing love to one of the best!
Really surprised at Andrew's knowledge on the Jamaican Dancehall influence on Hip-Hop, 💯% true and accurate 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 They called it Toast or Toasting back then and the Master of The Ceremony (MC) would "chat/toast" over the DJ playing the beats. When Jamaicans started immigrating to America they mainly settled in the East, New York. With their sound systems and big speakers they had, the American black community started to gravitate to these big parties outside the Jamaicans Blocks. They took it up and it developed into Hip-Hop 👌🏽
I have to completely disagree with this statement and I’m surprised more people aren’t calling him out on saying that. It’s not true at all. Even from the person who pioneered hiphop he debunked this.
Respect to Schultz for giving all the UK pioneers a voice on their platform world wide. Kano is a certified O.G in British music in general. I'm hyped to watch this podcast after the first 2 U.K pods. Big up yourself everytime famalam. Live from Swansea Wales 🏴
that quiet self confidence - kano really holds back, lets them cackle obnoxiously and doesn't get offended - represents so well what i've come to love about england since moving here from north america.
I've noticed a few times Kano holds back from his real opinion on things, especially educating Americans on how things are in UK. But when you hear his music, he's completely different. I wish he was less scared to put Americans in their place sometimes.
Good to know quite a few of us recognized a lot of the insensitive comments and remarks. Guys like this make it clear to me it's no surprise a lot of the world laughs at us.
I guess you don’t watch or listen to their podcast because they’re like this with everyone if you were waiting for some sort of sensitivity, wrong place to be.
There has never ever been a time where I would ever think that Andrew Schulz and Kano would be in the same room together. The matrix has been broken!!!!
Black American🇺🇲, Puerto Rican🇵🇷 And Jamaican 🇯🇲 Brother's all came together in the Bronx in the 70's and created this beautiful genre known today as Hip Hop !
Wow, if you’re American on here or even English and not into the UK scene, I would recommend you all day to listen to Kano’s music, especially the last two albums, one of the best rappers in the world right now and I’m not even exaggerating, and he also deserved acting awards for his performance in Top Boy season 3, ridiculously underrated talented person
This might be one of my fave episodes. The hiphop talks!!! Kano dropping 💎 about how we love American hiphop no doubt, but its not our story. That shit resonated hard.
@Comment_god interesting, I figured when I clicked on this there might be a lot of Americans who find this boring, (especially) if they’re not into rap, but mainly bc they’re not around Uk culture and also don’t listen to grime. That’s jus how you feel then I guess
Kano is a U.K. legend. The fact you guys have done some research on British grime and culture so it’s not just a surface generic British American interview is very cool. Top work 👌the blokes approve
Was never gonna be as in-depth as I'd like but I was still thankful that Kano got to spend 25mins talking about grime/UK music scene. Big up Kano for (even though not by name) mentioning Titch. 1:18:00
My South London born son in law put me on to Top Boy a few years ago. Big respect to Kano. His acting chops are serious as well as being a great musician.
Out of interest how were you listening to UK music in those days? I wouldn’t have thought jungle or garage or UK hip hop would have travelled very far before the internet, unless you’re talking about pop music
@@levelofsnipes7378 raves were going on in America back in the early 90s. Although obviously not the center of sound, plenty of American djs help push the sound. It absolutely wasn't mainstream but to people into underground counter culture music in general, rave music was well known with the hip hop, punk/industrial and reggae crowds. In terms of audio, other than the actual event's, people sold and traded mixtapes, like actual cassette tapes PS - plus the vinyl records were sold in music stores catering to Djs. Don't forget that America still contributed a significant portion of the culture to dance music, with early disco and house. So psychedelic dance music had been here since day 1. Electronic music has always been international but blossomed in Europe
@@levelofsnipes7378 forgot to mention AOL started in 95, and Napster around 98 or 99. So file sharing started just a few years later. Plus there was some Electronic music that went mainstream on MTV in America like Bjork, Prodigy, Portishead and Moorcheeba in the early and late 90s. So it wasn't as isolated as you may think 😊
I hope Kano takes acting to the next level. I can't give him enough props. I believe that playing Sully gave him an opportunity to show multiple dimensions of his acting prowes, cause Sully was such a complex character. I think he'd be good in a comedy role too, he has an unassuming demeanour, which would make him good in "black comedy", Ricky Gervais type comedy.
I am in awe from all the guests invited to this podcast. Andrew hits the g-spot every time. Still bumping Kano tunes 10 years later when I get the proper mood. This whole project is gonna be big. Thank u to all of the team. Love
This is why I have so much respect for kano, could easily link up with rappers in the charts and make a massive hit as he's so respected other artists would love to link, but he's more about the art and doing the rap he loves rather than what he thinks other ppl will love, sticking to his roots and that's what makes him so respected and a master of the game, true artist right there
Flagrant might of just become my favourite pod. Andrew actually does the research into our culture and our scene which I couldn’t say the same for much if any American podcasts.
Big up Kano, if you only know him from Top Boy than you need to listen to his albums and hits from the early 2000's extremely underrated in my opinion. Him and BBK created the music scene in the UK
loll kano's a goat but it wasn't just him n bbk that created the music scene , so solid, wiley , dizzie, d double e, ghetts the list goes on all these were around before and at the same time as these lot
Loads more than just him and BBK, like the other guy said JME, Bashy Ghetts Wretch 32 Narstie Wiley Lethal P Money Scorcher Scrufizzer all of them plus many more for sure bro.
Always loved kano growing up, his newer music isn't my thing but can confidently say he hasn't sold out. Guy deserves his dues, never been flashy or annoying, just goes about and does his thing. Absolute legend and the utmost respect to him!
I genuinely appreciate how shulz tried/did tap into the British culture 😂 so refreshing to see from an American nothing but respect "Fam" you're are officially one of the "Mandem" haha
When you said about you are Nas to someone lol Kano is literally my idol. First CD I ever bought with my own money was home sweet home. I knew it word for word and used to go school and make out it was my own bars. I changed the bars in brown eyes and told a girl I wrote it for her it got me my first gf. Grew with his music. So good to see how well he’s done all without selling out and delivering classic albums. Living legend. The GOAT!
I was a kid in the US when I heard Kano back in like 07 when he came out with "London Town". Him JME, Klashnekoff, Dizzee Rascal, Skepta, Wiley all put UK grime/rap on the map.
I still bump p money, all the true tiger stuff, maxsta money and yats still the hardest song ive ever heard Gotta edit, where da g's was my introduction to uk grime.
What you boys are doing with this podcast is (in the words of joey diaz) FUCKIN TREMENDOUS. You've not only changed the game for stand up youre badding up the game with podcasts now as well, this whole uk tour has been wild. Keep getting legends like kano on and you'll be a UK legend as well man this is class
Represented Celtic Football Club at youth level, what a fucking legend. I love his character Sully in Top Boy, he's definitely my favourite but I'm ignorant and didn't recognise him has Kano. I hadn't heard any of his music only the name Kano was a rapper. I'm north Eastern Scottish and drill is just a few years too young for me to have been around others to get into rap from England. I didnt get into hip hop properly until inwas 18/19. I'm definitely going to listen to his albums, he is so genuine and I love the way his mind and soul approach life and art. Seems like such a sound guy. I would love to be in the studio learning the musical process with him and I haven't even heard his music yet. This was a great podcast yet again, I appreciate the work put into every guest. I love all the people I've never heard of on the show, thank you guys for bringing all these new people into my life. I went off podcasts for a couple years once I lost interest in Joe Rogan. He's still a legend, I just don't have Spotify and I also just drifted away from it for no particular reason. I love Rogan for all he brought into my mind, especially Terence McKenna after a seriously strong acid trip when I was 17 that I was in no way prepared for. Terence and Rogan helped me open my mind to the whole psychedelic scene. That was 12 years ago. My point is you've managed to reignite my love for podcasts again.
@hfc crazy isn't it. Aye I seen that he played for them too but weren't worth mentioning in the same comment as The Mighty Glasgow Celtic. Mon' the hoops!

I am in awe from all the guests invited to this podcast. Andrew hits the g-spot every time. Still bumping Kano tunes 10 years later when I get the proper mood. This whole project is gonna be big. Thank u to all of the team. Love
All those artists suck.
A
Why’s you have to say g spot relax
Why u say G-spot bro wtf wrong witchu 💀
That a Y right there
Huge respect for getting Kano on this pod, what a legend!!
This is why I have so much respect for kano, could easily link up with rappers in the charts and make a massive hit as he's so respected other artists would love to link, but he's more about the art and doing the rap he loves rather than what he thinks other ppl will love, sticking to his roots and that's what makes him so respected and a master of the game, true artist right there
Dope. I love Top Boy. I REALLY didn’t know he was a famed rapper. Had to go back and listen. Hella dope ✊🏾
Flagrant lads hitting that uk elite status, bringing on a goat like Kano
Basically a left hook that no one saw coming.. you man are smashing life 💯
Flagrant might of just become my favourite pod. Andrew actually does the research into our culture and our scene which I couldn’t say the same for much if any American podcasts.
If the white boy did research on black American culture then he'd know Hip Hop has no origins in Jamaica.

I’m happy i found out about top boy. Watched all the 5 seasons in the row. Never knew about Kano or Dushane! Sad top boy had to end. Very cool show!
Didn't know you guys did a UK tour?! I'll be keeping an eye out for tickets. Mad respect for getting Kano on too, proper UK legend! 🇬🇧
Big up Kano, if you only know him from Top Boy than you need to listen to his albums and hits from the early 2000's extremely underrated in my opinion. Him and BBK created the music scene in the UK
And roll deep, main guy from all, Wiley .
loll kano's a goat but it wasn't just him n bbk that created the music scene , so solid, wiley , dizzie, d double e, ghetts the list goes on all these were around before and at the same time as these lot
Loads more than just him and BBK, like the other guy said JME, Bashy Ghetts Wretch 32 Narstie Wiley Lethal P Money Scorcher Scrufizzer all of them plus many more for sure bro.
Maaaaaate, being from the UK and having man like K - A on the Pod is nuts!!! Smashing it Flagrant 💪
Always loved kano growing up, his newer music isn't my thing but can confidently say he hasn't sold out.
Guy deserves his dues, never been flashy or annoying, just goes about and does his thing.
Absolute legend and the utmost respect to him!
I genuinely appreciate how shulz tried/did tap into the British culture 😂 so refreshing to see from an American nothing but respect "Fam" you're are officially one of the "Mandem" haha
When you said about you are Nas to someone lol Kano is literally my idol. First CD I ever bought with my own money was home sweet home. I knew it word for word and used to go school and make out it was my own bars. I changed the bars in brown eyes and told a girl I wrote it for her it got me my first gf. Grew with his music. So good to see how well he’s done all without selling out and delivering classic albums. Living legend. The GOAT!
What a nuts collab, love the love there showing the uk 🔥
100% the best episode from the UK so far!
Kanos face when Andrew says fanny rinsed is hilarious
Definitely one of my favorite guests so far! This episode was pure quality 🔥🔥
Love both these guys. I’m British but live in america and so good seeing this interview.
Kano's album Home sweet home along with Dizzee Rascals Showtime got me into hiphop. Love from Sweden.
I was a kid in the US when I heard Kano back in like 07 when he came out with "London Town". Him JME, Klashnekoff, Dizzee Rascal, Skepta, Wiley all put UK grime/rap on the map.
A person of supreme culture👌
Klashnekoff and the Terra Firma guys are siiiiick.
I still bump p money, all the true tiger stuff, maxsta money and yats still the hardest song ive ever heard
Gotta edit, where da g's was my introduction to uk grime.
Without wiley there would be no kano tinchi chip dizzy skepta or jme facts
Gotta give Ghetts some love too
@@joshuawoods7775 K-Lash is my favorite. Supremely underrated
Man like Sully! Really enjoyed this interview and love how he stayed humble throughout. Who’s here for a Power / Top Boy mash up!?
Man like Kanooooo
Top Boy is literally one the best shows ever!
Another perfect guest! This podcast is so good
What you boys are doing with this podcast is (in the words of joey diaz) FUCKIN TREMENDOUS. You've not only changed the game for stand up youre badding up the game with podcasts now as well, this whole uk tour has been wild. Keep getting legends like kano on and you'll be a UK legend as well man this is class
Kano chase and status against all odds still one of my favourite tunes ever big back in the day and p's and k's
Did not expect American comedians to give one of the best Kano interviews; great questions, good research just great show altogether
these american guys were utter cringe half the podcast
Schulz floundering his way thru understanding UK culture might be the funniest shit yet
Y’all don’t have any culture
@@ClinicalDecisionYikesYT you clearly never left your hometown
Yessssssss literally one of the best musicians from uk music. Legendary status. Big up flagrant!!!
I remember when Kano came on the scene. One of my first things I saw was Kano and Wiley at a house party going back and forth. TH-cam it. It's epic.
This pod got a lot better second half
I speak for everybody, we love the UK content
Facts was boutta comment this
One of the greatest lyricists of all time and great actor. Big up K every time
Hell yeah bruv
Great actor indeed. He was my favorite
Represented Celtic Football Club at youth level, what a fucking legend. I love his character Sully in Top Boy, he's definitely my favourite but I'm ignorant and didn't recognise him has Kano. I hadn't heard any of his music only the name Kano was a rapper. I'm north Eastern Scottish and drill is just a few years too young for me to have been around others to get into rap from England. I didnt get into hip hop properly until inwas 18/19.
I'm definitely going to listen to his albums, he is so genuine and I love the way his mind and soul approach life and art. Seems like such a sound guy. I would love to be in the studio learning the musical process with him and I haven't even heard his music yet.
This was a great podcast yet again, I appreciate the work put into every guest. I love all the people I've never heard of on the show, thank you guys for bringing all these new people into my life.
I went off podcasts for a couple years once I lost interest in Joe Rogan. He's still a legend, I just don't have Spotify and I also just drifted away from it for no particular reason. I love Rogan for all he brought into my mind, especially Terence McKenna after a seriously strong acid trip when I was 17 that I was in no way prepared for. Terence and Rogan helped me open my mind to the whole psychedelic scene. That was 12 years ago. My point is you've managed to reignite my love for podcasts again.
@hfc crazy isn't it. Aye I seen that he played for them too but weren't worth mentioning in the same comment as The Mighty Glasgow Celtic. Mon' the hoops!
It doesn't matter if a guest doesn't appeal too much to the american audience, Schulz knows how to make every single episode an absolute banger
Banger?? View counts don’t lie
Kano: We called it jungle
Andrew: Am I allowed to say that?
Looool
I’ve been watching flagrant for 2 years now and damn till this day the show is only getting better. Keep up the good work boys and big s/o to the goat Kano
Wow, I had no idea I could get acting insight from a grime OG. Thanks to everyone involved!
Andrews doing allot for UK culture unintentionally, this is brilliant and never would of thought this would of happened if you give me a million guesses.
Credit to your research from the UK. You new stuff I didn't think you would know. Shout out fix up look Sharpe. Keep up the good work Andrew and the team.
Kano is an underrated actor, dope to see this side of him
Least funny pod ever, but still so engaging! Great job on this interview
Kano one of the realest og's we have in the UK, respected by everyone
Now this is a crossover I’d never expect to see. Big up Flagrant crew for putting this together 💪🏼
