k-os joins an eclectic pantheon of musicians who have sat in with The Roots, including Justin Vernon, Cee Lo Green, John Mayer, Itzhak Perlman, Adam Levine, DJ Jazzy Jeff, Zakk Wylde, John Mayer, “Weird Al” Yankovich, Michael Bolton and everyone’s favorite rambunctious muppet Animal.
Double album BLack On BLonde is a cohesive collection of two records; one of rock tunes and the other of old-school hip hop jams. As such, the album features collaborations from a varied array of guests, including Black Thought (The Roots), Travie McCoy (Gym Class Heroes), Emily Haines (Metric), Corey Hart, Sebastien Grainger (Death From Above 1979), Juno Award-winning Canadian rock singer/songwriter Sam Roberts and many others. Always innovative, provocative and fearless, k-os showcases his versatility by singing and playing drums, guitar and bass throughout the album.
