Somalian Rapper K’Naan stops by ‘The Morning After starring Angela Yee’ and breaks down the history behind the pirating. He also explains why he is in support of the Somalian pirates and tells how they manage to get on the ships!!
K’Naan: It’s strange as it is, a lot of people don’t like me for saying that but i’m in support of the pirates.
Angela Yee: Why are you in support of the pirates?
K’Naan: Because western companies, like massive western companies would come to Somalia and dump nuclear toxic waste containers on the shore because there was no govt controlling the shore lines. So these pirate initially went into the ocean to make them pay for that sort of thing. So they just take everything for hostage or ransom, so that actually helped us clean our envoirment.
Emoticon: Can you break it down, I’m sure you probably have cousin that a pirates. How are they taking over the ships?
K’Naan: They got like real pirates they got like the mother ship, they really do different gangs got like different massive ships, and they they got like speed boats that the lounge from underneath the ship. And then the speed boats are mounted with machine guns and what they’ll do is they’ll go to a tanker or something and the speed boats will come flying every direction. They’ll go around and overwhelm….
Emoticon: That’s it i don’t want to know anymore I’m nervous.
K’Naan: You know what’s crazy on the real I was just telling someone’ I literally do have pirate cousins.
