Shad is a critically-acclaimed Canadian MC, widely regarded for his humour, honesty, and intelligence. Born in Kenya to Rwandan parents and relocated to Canada, Shad’s 2007 album, The Old Prince, won national fame in Canada, including a Juno Award (the most prestigious honor in Canadian music), and a nomination for the Polaris Music Prize.
His most recent album, TSOL, was released in the U.S. through Decon Records, and included the hit “Rose Garden” (video inset).
