The Canadian Shad (Shadrach Kabango) has emphatically emerged as one of Canada’s most gifted young hip-hop artists. After garnering groundbreaking reviews on his independent 2005 debut When This is Over, Shad seems to have effortlessly leaped over huge expectations with his 2007 sophomore release, The Old Prince.
Shad stepped into the Canadian music scene, winning first prize at 91.5 FM’s (London, ON) annual Rhythm of the Future unsigned talent competition. Shad put the $17,500 prize towards recording resources for his debut, while completing an Honours Bachelor of Business Administration degree at Wilfrid Laurier University.
When This is Over earned endless respect for its honest and clever lyrics and its distinct musical aesthetic. Shad toured the album, selling out solo shows in Toronto and London, playing for campuses across the country, and landing opening spots for the likes of Common, Lupe Fiasco, Classified and The Slip. His constantly developing fan base and reputation as a performing musician also landed Shad invaluable stage-time at a variety of festivals including Hillside, the PTBO Folk Festival, Wakestock and Manifesto.
Shad’s growth as a musician shines through on The Old Prince.
