Everything Bryan Adams does, he does it for himself. 
In anticipation of Bryan Adams' forthcoming album, which he describes as "a deeply personal musical love letter to Canada,"  we create a timeline of the CanCon Man's tumultuous relationship with CanCon rules and his baffling opinions about the Canadian music industry as a whole. How’s it goin’, Bryan? Not great!

In the final chapter of our K-OS deep dive, we take a look at his chaotic post-Crabbuckit career which includes teaming up with members of Broken Social Scene , Nelly Furtado, Bob Rock, and many others. Mac also argues that the CanCon-filled Yes! (2009) is K-OS' best album meanwhile Laura says no! to that outrageous claim.
Also discussed: Tegan & Sara, the Barenaked Ladies fumbling the national anthem, having fun and more!

We climb claw-first into K-OS's breakout 2004 album Joyful Rebellion and continue our quest to figure out what fuels and frightens K-OS. Hip-hop? The biz? Everything? Everyone? It's all in the music man.
