K-os and Skratch Bastid switch it up in studio q

Old, new and borrowed too — hear K-os and DJ Skratch Bastid deliver a string of unique medleys.

K-os returns to studio with his latest record Can't Fly Without Gravity — but whenever the Toronto rapper comes around, there's always a twist. 

He and musical accomplice DJ Skratch Bastid join forces to deliver new spins on old classics, like Crabbuckit and I wish I knew Natalie Portman, but also to showcase his latest genre-defying tracks.  

K-os also sits down with Shad to discuss perpetual reinvention, hip hop's sampling culture, and how he developed his appetite for dissonance. 

"Nobody's always on key in life," he laughs.
