Shad-A good name

[ssbmSpyro]

This is awesome. I absolutely hated rap before I heard Shad.

[afterninemuzik]

cant no find no talent like this anywhere else lol

[TheGrievingLion]

Awesome song, Canada represent!

[radtv5150]

thank you pandora

[Timmieisblack]

The beginning beat sounds like the beat from Biz Markie's Picking Boogers.

[kg21mack]

fucking awesome

[GodsS0N1]

Yo man I feel the POWER in this track son

[onetallorder84]

Shad's best. And classified should stick to making beats, leave the mic to the pros like Shad. Case in point.

[YoungLuns]

shads an inspiration. hes too real. i fuck with all kinds of rap but i think more people need to be put on this dude. I actually did a remix over Shad's "Keep Shining" instrumental called "Young Luns - Aspirations". Go to my channel and check it out along with a few other tracks I have. If you like my music feel free to follow me on twitter @YoungLuns and subscribe to my page. Big plans for 2012, takin it to the next level. Thumbs this up so maybe someone else will see it. Thanks

[AlexIsSmalll]

I just realized after like 6 months that TSOL is LOST backwards

[StealThisKarl]

@AlexIsSmalll wow haha how did i not realize that shit

[bzden]

This song makes me want to name my first-born son Shad

[joeyjoejoe193]

[jjbwoodpushaz]

this song has so much more meaning than most people even know

[PodzyMusic]

Loving the collaboration, a Classified beat, shad rapping.

Canadian Hip Hop (Y)

[undercovervalentin]

[Kyleb728]

The first verse..... My god its good.

[Ddoomalay]

[ohsnapsdawgsz]

I can't Like/Favorite this enough!

[FatBeatsHipHop]

This album should be uploaded on fatbeats within the week

[dexter2304]

the crazy part is that people take time to create such meaningful music and yet the media still choose pointless autotune music over it.

[crise1]

from shad to drake or drake to shad best believe that there is dopeness in the Canadian content.

[1934jojo]

Just came back from his concert...He was SO AMAZING

[KaptainKaplan1]

Shad opened for Macklemore in Boston last night it was sick both of them killed it

[soezr]

[popcornlagace]

[henryo13]

[mabus2007]

[KillahB89]

@popcornlagace

go listen to your MTV, prick

[thekid112489]

@KillahB89 I don't understand what your problem is with his music ? O.o ?

[KillahB89]

@thekid112489

???

[Gabucas]

@popcornlagace though i may disagree with what you say ( I absolutely fucking disagree!) i will defend to the death your right to say it :D

[GangsterGumbo]

@popcornlagace Mommy just wasn't there, was she? Really, I feel bad saying it, because it HAS to hit home for you and all, but... really... you smell like poop, and your dumb brain just let WHOEVER looks at this song know it, It's not you're fault, though, it's just your brain. I feel bad that you have to live with it. You know, that brain. Being that it is dumb as it is and all.

Love,

Gangster Gumbo

[chaiteaification]

Intellectual raps exists, thanks Shad.

[KidwiFli]

@chaiteaification ya well i like my "dumb raps" .. HIPSTERS!!! LISTEN TO EVERYTHING!!! EXPERIENCE IS LIFE!!!

[alexandro420]

@chaiteaification

I love the positivity is his lyrics. We need more like him.

[93mherrera]

@chaiteaification haha i love this comment. so many rappers nowadays are focused on the girls, money, and drugs. this is the best album i have heard in a while and dude those first couple of lines are fucking ballin haha

[papataka]

0 people don't know what real music is

[mxs703]

you see Shad's pop, always played bad cop he had no badge though, we didn't gave him mad props but now I respect it guess it's perspective in hindsight seeing is corrected so when I get kids if they get arrested they going to get licks like breathmints check it he held a tough job down held my mothers hand handed down proud roots from my motherland from my hometown people say my name sounds dope no doubt but that's not why I'm most proud, I've got a good name

i love that verse represents my dad

[priceyhabits]

no matter how many times i tell my people about shad....

they won't listen.

i feel terrible for them

[VivaLaGrenade]

@priceyhabits

Atleast we know where its at bro... That's all that matters!

One by One we begin to Listen!

Welcome to a freshly squeezed version of hip-hop!

Take a sip and Enjoi!

[macthesack]

200th like.... 100% of people recognize good music!

[karllebel]

he played in my friends Backyard... A G and a plate of cold cuts... fuck it was worth it

[RealVision24]

its like the Christian Drake

[yelir92]

@RealVision24 lyrically shad is 20 times the rapper drake will ever be

[RealVision24]

@yelir92 yup i believe you luv what he represents

[AngelaLiveLaughLove]

@RealVision24 except drake rhymes about hoes and bitches soo.. they arent the same at all! lol

[RealVision24]

@AngelaLiveLaughLove ya all im sayin is the sound of the voice is some what similar

[AlexIsSmalll]

@RealVision24 i hear it a little now that you said that. drakes voice is a little deeper and lazier though

[f1d086]

"TSOL doesn't stand for any one thing. I just liked the sound of it. It represents the insufficiency of language to express feeling and ideas, which is why we have art. It can stand for a number of things: the struggle of love, truth shall overcome lies, 'lost' backward. It's representative of the ambiguity of life in a way."

[misschristaljoy]

Shad Is My Favorite Rapper!!!!

[OGTmak]

TSOL=LOST i think thats wat it iz

[jonesodaful]

beat produced by classified

[KmkSuburban]

I wish I could keep Shad K on the downlow and just jam with a fer bros who know who he is... but, with intelligent music and impeccable verses he will be world renown.

[Slitfang]

[Statenskaten]

The old prince is good,

[kdg213]

[ESNKFTTE]

@alex23veno i'm tryin man

[nigrez]

[mastaaceexclusive]

it must have been some strange phenomenon ..

they walked straight THROUGH the fireeee.. Chaka Kahn

SPIT HOT FIRE

[spartan445544]

7000 views only? its no fair lil wayne gets 20 mil. Lil wayne raps about himself, and doesnt give a crap about anything else

[ESNKFTTE]

My name is Aman

[olivautube]

this guy is a beast, i cant keep up with him because of how he forms his lyrics, HE'S THE KING OF REAL RAP!

[superlyrical1987]

classified and shad would make an incredible album together

[riffrafferton]

@superlyrical1987 oh man, they'd murk a musical masterpiece,

[LeDuckDuckGoose]

@superlyrical1987 Also add DL Incoginto and Prolific....

[tellmewhatiKNOW]

man i love this WHOLE ENTIRE albumm.

"say whatca like, just spell my name right..." haha i feel him.

[tellmewhatiKNOW]

where can i download this album ?

EVERY SINGLE SONG is dopeee as fuck.

[DarkShadowProphet]

I saw Shad at the Hillside Festival in Guelph, ON, it was amazing, EASILY the best show of the entire festival. I picked this cd up at Hillside and then Old Prince about 2 days later, both phenomenal cds.

[IeashiaIsGreat]

Amazing Song.

Striking lyrics.

(And I really enjoyed that Chaka Khan reference.)

[NinteenEightyNothing]

I'm pretty sure I'm responsible for about 500 of these views. I really wish Shad would get more respect, he's single handedly turned me back on to Hip-Hop... no easy feat given what people like Timbaland and Drake have done to destroy it.

[VietPlayer13]

This is definitely my favorite track off the album wish it was longer!

[almostfamous74]

I'm buying the album.....today.

[SSSMforlife1]

his name is Shadrach Kobongo

[KardiFan2000]

@SSSMforlife1 *Kabango

[JonnyHagarty]

Easily my favorite track on the album. Powerful words!

[clayzekilla]

50 cent dosent deserve to be mentioned in a Shad song

[g1e1o1r1]

this kid is better than drake

[user169022]

@g1e1o1r1 .... and?

[DAHoodRida]

People, there is no k after his name, just Shad.

On his albums it says SHAD on the cover not SHAD K

[wanderlustwarrior]

@DAHoodRida Though K is the first letter of his last name. And listen to the song, he says you can put a K after it if you want to.

[ziceman46]

@DAHoodRida His last name is Kabango. So that's why people say Shad K. sometimes.

[iHackedLife]

This is such an amazing song. He is a melodic and lyrical genius. Best song on the album.

[ESNKFTTE]

Epic



[seguy5]

Fresh mans killed it, when i get kids if they get arrested they gonna get lips like breath mints check it. 

[Wercyx]

This song makes me smiiiiilleee hahahhaha i can't believe he's not famous....that singer deserve more and more!

[MrBrightside6969]

[FreeBills]

[MrBrightside6969]

one of my favourite songs on his new album!

[swalls567]

ok this is starting to depress me... 209 views?!?!?!?! what the fuck is wrong with the world

[SaltyCZ]

Only 120 views!?!?

While Soulja Boy over there has over a million when he makes his music in 5 minutes.

Damn, somebody please kill all the radio rappers.

[KardiFan2000]
