I'm pleased to start off the New Year with a special episode from Barbin Around-this episode features an exclusive interview with Shad K-

In this episode, Barb has an in-depth interview with Shad K discussing topics you just can't find on Wikipedia or Google.  Shad was ranked the 2nd greatest rapper in Canadian history. He has released 7 albums to date.  In 2011 he won the best album of the year for TSOL which included songs such as ``Rose garden and Yeah I Get It”.



In 2013 he was named the 2nd greatest Canadian Rapper of all time by CBC.  Shad has also hosted Q on CBC and has won an international Emmy and Peabody award for his docuseries Hip Hop Evolution.  Currently, he has a new album Titled TEO where Shad digs deep into the ups and downs of being human and features many songs including Black Averagmenss and Work.

Something that you all probably didn't know is that Shad is bilingual and holds a business degree from Wilfrid Laurier University and a Masters's degree from Simon Fraser University. Shad is married and has 2 children.
