Cadence Weapon

Where: LabO 1201
When: September 27th, 17:00-18:30pm, 19:15-20:45pm




Cadence Weapon is Edmonton-born, Hamilton-based rapper, producer, writer and poet Rollie Pemberton. His 2021 album Parallel World won Canada’s Polaris Music Prize.

Splitting his time between Edmonton’s experimental electronic and underground rap scenes as a teenager, Pemberton eventually developed a hybrid of both styles.

Pemberton’s music pairs ground-breaking production with incisive, socially conscious lyricism. Pemberton’s memoir called Bedroom Rapper was published by McClelland & Stewart in May 2022 and his newest album ROLLERCOASTER was released on April 19, 2024.
