London Town was released on September 10, 2007, which included hit single, "This Is The Girl", featuring Craig David. Towards the end of 2005, Kano also released a mixtape, Beats & Bars, which is currently only available at his concerts. 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. 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. However, since being signed to 679 recordings, he has now left N.A.S.T.Y Crew, and took Demon and Ghetto with him. He was also a key member in East London’s N.A.S.T.Y. He is signed to 679 Recordings and is a lablemate of The Streets.
From this springboard he was signed as a solo artist and began work on his debut solo album. 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). His cousin Jonathan Fortune plays for Charlton Athletic. 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. In his early teens Kano attended Langdon Comprehensive School in East Ham, Newham, where his mother still works. There are two musical projects by the name of Kano - a UK hip hop / grime rapper and a classic italo-disco project
