knaanOkay, so when we wrote that Kanye West was planning to release songs on Twitter last week, it was an April Fool. But Somali-Canadian rapper K’Naan IS using Twitter, except it’s fans providing the lyrics. He’s launched a contest inviting fans to download an instrumental of his People Like Me track, and then submit their suggested lyrics via Twitter. In May, he’ll choose the best ones and release the final version of the track. Nice idea. And at least it stops people from being too wordy. You can see the live stream of people’s submissions here.
