Shadrach Kabango: Juno award winner and SFU grad student

Friday, April 1st, 2011

Congratulations to Shadrach Kabango (Shad) for winning a Juno, Canada’s top musical award, for Best Rap Recording of the year for his album TSOL.

He’s a part-time student in the Graduate Liberal Studies program at SFU’s Vancouver campus, and says, of the city: “it’s a beautiful place to be in when I’m off tour. It really feels like a getaway. Taking classes when I’m off tour has been great too. I think both of those aspects of my life in Vancouver have helped me.” (GuelphMercury)

When he gets back, he’ll be finishing up a paper on Tolstoy.
