I love shad he has such a great personality and understands hes not the biggest rapper in the world and hes just a piece of the whole game. He's so different from all the other egotistical ones who wanna be the best this guy is the best and his music is amazing :D
To answer her original question i'd like to quote MURS.
"The problem with HipHop? Nothing at all, it's an art form, it ranges and it changes it evolves. It's not always for the better but be patient with it y'all. For our time will come and the wicked will fall." -The Biggest Lie
Shad's inspire humbleness and talent alike. Makes me proud to be Canadian=]
@BluLantern well its not quite forty yet then but i know there is no exact official date it started, plus ive heard a few songs that came from before then that sound arguably like rap...
The first time I heard Lil' Weener rap with auto-tune I thought it is weak. A lotta peeps from the westcoast did it way before him, and if you go back to the vocoder thing.. even Afrika Bambaataa was using it before him LOL
Shad gets nothing but props in my book. He's nicest on the punchlines and analogies. He's sincerely himself in his tracks. I can't appreciate this artist enough.
Put Shad and Eshon Burgundy on a track together and you'll get the dopest collab in history. Their styles are a lil different but it could work, they are masterminds...Shad is your favorite rapper's favorite rapper
@heixloke22 If you think Akon and Pitbull are good artists, you should probably go shoot yourself. This shit they play on mainstream radio and TV these days is awful, let's just talk about getting drunk and them thinking how awesome they are.
@kiddstarstrucc ..hear whut your saying but I feel he is one of many who understand whuts really happening from a non biased point in the Culture ..if it's too opinionated it promotes whut's being said or going on ..wack or dope content. staying humbly quiet is the better route at times ..very sensible expressionist though. ..It keeps strength and style in your craft and Hiphop b-boy styles and writers behind the tech 12s expand like no other. .. Peace for that though. .. Shad is real.
@kiddstarstrucc wow man, how can u say he is the only sensible voice to come out of hip hop? have u heard Blue Scholars, the Roots, People Under the Stairs, K-os??
and then they fucked.

It was the recommended video of The Old Prince Still Lives At Home, while I was watching the Fresh Prince theme, that tuned me into Shad years back.
Every now and then, Youtube knocks one out of the park.
Shad's one of my favorite rappers.
