An MC I Care About Today: Shad
“I Don’t Really Like To,” from Shad’s The Old Prince LP
Ever since I stumbled on Shad’s music online, I’ve been telling everyone who cares to listen about this dude. You know how rappers always say they’re doing this for fun? Shad (short for Shadrach Kabango) exemplifies that 100%.
“Aw G, now you got me cocky
Cats say you the illest
I’m like ‘Nah B, nah B, nah B…’
Well OK, probably but that’s just only
’cause I rap like it’s my hobby
Not a jobby job, all sloppy and off key”
From the abundance of self-deprecating lines to the way he loosely spews each rhyme like it’s a freestyle, Shad sounds like he’s truly savoring every moment.
