Kent Bowman aka K. K. Ka’umanua (K.K. Cow–Manure)
Bowman
popularized fractured fairy tales with his precise and brilliant mix of
classic characters told in Hawaiian pidgin, decades before they became
theatrical commerce for the late Lisa Y. Matsumoto and her trilogy of
"Once Upon One Time" plays with music. He was a marvelous storyteller
who had the wisdom and wherewithal to juxtapose familiar literary
figures into da kine local scene. "Goldie the Blonde Malihini and the
Three Wild Pua'a" ("Goldilocks and the Three Bears"), "Rumple
Dakineskin" ("Rumpelstiltskin"), "Little Lei Puahi" ("Little Red
Ridinghood"), "Hau Kea and the Seven Menehunes" ("Snow White and the
Seven Dwarfs") and "Keaka and the Beanstalk" ("Jack and the Bean-stalk")
were driven by his attention to detail, a local accent and his
storytelling skills. To egg on local politicos, Bowman also concocted a
senatorial candidate of the people, K.K. Ka'umanua (if you know how to
pronounce it quickly, local-style, you'll get the essence of his
intentions), whose motto was, "You no can say something nice about
someone, talk stink about everyone." He used to get speaking requests
from many political and civic organizations that expected him to appear
as Ka'umanua, the people's choice. "Kent and I did a radio show on KCCN,
when it was located at Sand Island, and he'd rush to the studio from
his day job," recalled McDiarmid. "As for the K.K. Ka'umanua name, we
were sitting around one day, talking about creating a character, and he
decided on Ka'umanua, giving him all the benefits of every crooked
politician we could think of. He decided on initials instead of a first
name, and we joked, one day K.K. Ka'umanua might join the Ku Klux Klan."
Bowman recorded five Island albums that galvanized his recording career
and served as early inspiration for others to follow, such as Rap
Reiplinger, Booga Booga, Andy Bumatai and Frank DeLima. He had a way
with words and was able to turn English into phrases in Spanish, Tagalog
and Japanese. Full article: Honolulu Advertiser
