1) [1] a UK hip hop / grime rapper
2) [2] a classic italo-disco project.
3) [3] a Japanese singer who covers Vocaloid songs.
[1] In his early teens Kano attended Langdon Comprehensive School in East Ham, Newham, where his mother still works. Kano was a promising footballer, representing Chelsea F.C., Junior Hammers and Norwich City by the age of thirteen, but in the end he abandoned his sporting ambitions in favour of a musical career. His cousin Jonathan Fortune plays for Charlton Athletic.
His first track was "Boys Love Girls". Kano first became known on the UK grime scene for his work with his original group, N.A.S.T.Y Crew (Natural Artistic Sounds Touching You). From this springboard he was signed as a solo artist and began work on his debut solo album.
He is signed to 679 Recordings and is a label mate of The Streets. He was also a key member in East London’s N.A.S.T.Y. Crew. However, since being signed to 679 recordings, he has now left N.A.S.T.Y Crew, and took Demon and Ghetto with him.
Home Sweet Home was a great critical success, from across the British press, most notably The Independent and The Observer, two creditable UK based newspapers. Many artists in the UK and US have expressed positive views of the album, including Busta Rhymes, Nas, RZA, Jay-Z, Andre 3000 and Chuck D of Public Enemy.
Towards the end of 2005, Kano also released a mixtape, Beats & Bars, which is currently only available at his concerts.
London Town was released on September 10, 2007, which included hit single, "This Is The Girl", featuring Craig David. London Town includes tracks featuring Gorillaz member Damon Albarn formerly of Blur, Kate Nash, Craig David, Vybz Kartel and Leo The Lion.
Kano is also releasing a special Deluxe Limited Edition that includes a DVD featuring a interview with Kano, This Is The Girl video and acoustic studio footage with Craig David.
Kano has now left 679 recordings.

[2] Kano was a post-disco music project formed in 1979 by Italian-based producers/musicians Luciano Ninzatti, Stefano Pulga and Matteo Bonsanto. They were early producers of a style of Italian dance music called Italo-disco, a blend of 1970s disco and funk with the addition of synthesizers.
Kano's sound was first heard on radio stations and in dance clubs around the world with their debut hit single, 1980's "I'm Ready", from their self-titled debut album (which also included the minor hits, "It's a War" and the instrumental track "Cosmic Voyager"). The b-side of "I'm Ready", "Holly Dolly" used the same essential production elements. "I'm Ready" also peaked at #21 on the Black Singles chart. "It's a War" was also a big hit on the Hot Dance Music/Club Play chart in the U.S., reaching #2 for five weeks.
The project went on to record two other albums, including 1981's "New York Cake" (which included the minor hits "Don't Try to Stop Me", and "Can't Hold Back") and 1983's "Another Life" (including the title track and "I Need Love") which introduced West Indian-born singer Glen White. Their last song was 1985's "This Is the Night".
"I'm Ready" was later used as a sample on a few songs, such as Gigolo Tony's 1986 hit "Hokie Pokie" and Rofo's 1987 hit "Flashlight In A Disconight". The most well-known use of it as a sample is on Tag Team's 1993 hit, "Whoomp! (There It Is)". "Another Life" was remixed by Master Blaster featuring in their 2003 album "We Love Italo Disco". "Another Life" was also sampled in the 2005 track "Discopolis" by Lifelike & Kris Menace. "Ikeya Seki" was sampled by the French electro house artist Kavinsky for his track "Grand Canyon", which appeared on his 2007 EP, 1986.

Anywhere We Go
Kano Lyrics
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking the wire
Nigga we do this ting
A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go
If we need to find you
Then a hunting we will go
Violence I don't promote but if
The guns shall get involved
Any violation then a hunting we will go
Dem not ready for the kid, niggas wanna chill
And have a bevvy with the kid
Wanna buss joke like Lenny with the kid
But it can get bad like belly with the kid
Cause a nigga strapped tact
Heavy with a stick
And cause I'm on telly think
I'm a little bitch
You can take shots like it's a free kick
But nigga I'm sick like Pele on a pitch
So it can get messy real quick
Cause they wan' take a yard
When you're giving them an inch
You ain't that hard, you ain't that large
And you ain't in charge
You can get a red card
And you can get touched like it's a massage
And never come back like a sarge in Iraq
You can go missing, nigga no kidding
It's on 'til we find you nigga, no chilling
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking the wire
Nigga we do this ting
A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go
If we need to find you
Then a hunting we will go
Violence I don't promote but if
The guns shall get involved
Any violation then a hunting we will go
'Cause It's my time
You know them bad mind from ever since
Everybody know the grudge the
Youtdem feel intense
You can see me in a club, looking fresh
Couple bottles and a little
Bit of bling-bling
But if you see me outside you can screw
But rudeboy don't try a ting
Me I'm on a humble ting
But the guns will ring like Peter crack
Believe that it's not a thing
And let's be real you don't wanna feel bullet
It won't be me but a nigga will pull it
Me I'm no G man, you play He-Man
You can get clapped like a Diwali riddim
Dying's never a good look for business
Man I hope Cavalli will fit 'em
I run this house but I'm hardly a Simmons
So you can run your mouth
And I'll be the villain
Cause anybody violate anybody now
They'll hunt man down like
McGarvey and kill 'em
And you give 'em Sunday like carvery dinners
Nigga this is new rules
Find you like Saddam and watch
The views grow on YouTube
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking the wire
Nigga we do this ting
A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go
If we need to find you
Then a hunting we will go
Violence I don't promote but if
The guns shall get involved
Any violation then a hunting we will go
Convict like Akon
Kano, Ghetto, Stringer Bell and Avon
Ever since free of cells
I've been bringing hell
And cells make me sick so when I'm in
One I feel like I've got sickle cell
These days you gotta be careful
Some man go hard like Omar
Yeah I don't buss but don't sing as well
Before I let the feds take me away
I'll cruise the sting like Damian Blake
I bought a machine gun make no mistake
You've already seen when I'm aiming the gauge
So watch how you're talking to me
You won't be talking at all
Talk so much, you talk in your sleep
I just talk with the tool i'm a war monger
(Ghetts) I'm a hunger for war
Ca' it affects the older or younger
I be the underground king
That links, I've got shit, my floor under
I make it look easy
Like I was getting a whores number
G Star Jeans, G Star Raw jumper
More stress, more ganja
I'm a hunter, I be like
Just before I die, drama, bring it
I'm Osama with it
I make man that are larger - brick it!
Then I be on the beach like Wayne Wonder
Two lines, til this bar is finished
Gimme a zoot and a glass of Guinness
I be the nigga that they can't diminish g-H!
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking the wire
Ya dun know I'm on this ting!
A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go
If we need to find you
Then a hunting we will go
If I catch my pen on this
I'm dumping on the flows
A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go
If we need to find you
Then a hunting we will go
If I catch my pen on this
I'm dumping on the flows
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking
The wire, the fire, the bars I spit
I locked it like bars I'm slicking the wire
