Album Notes & Community Reviews
Earning a Juno Award nomination, 'The Old Prince' solidified the Kenyan-born, Ontario-raised MC as a vital voice in Canadian music. The album features quick-witted, self-deprecating lyricism draped over soulful, sample-heavy boom-bap production that actively avoids gangsta rap clich茅s.
