Album Description

Cadence Weapon’s explosive debut, Breaking Kayfabe was an impossibly accomplished hip-hop album stacked with clever writing and impressive rhymes, paired with the electro-tones of UK grime and West Coast hip-hop. The album yielded instant praise and notoriety, culminating in nominations from the Polaris Music Prize, the Muchmusic Video Awards and the Plug Independent Music Awards, and won Canadian Indie Music Award and CBC Radio 3 Bucky Awards. Cadence Weapon and Breaking Kayfabe garnered fans from Pitchforkmedia.com, Urb Magazine, XLR8R, CMJ, Q Magazine, Uncut, Drowned In Sound to name only a few.

Pemberton is back and he is firmly establishing his legacy as a pioneer in a passionate crusade to push the rap and electronic music envelope. His new offering, a 14 track, 58 minute dance rap party epic is dedicated to ‘all the accidents out there’ as a testimony to Rollie Pemberton’s first influence, his father, Teddy Pemberton. A native of Brooklyn, NY, Mr. Pemberton created The Black Sound Experience radio show on the University of Alberta’s CSJR station in 1980, and is credited for introducing hip-hop to Rollie’s hometown of Edmonton, the capital city of Alberta.

Following in his father’s ground-breaking footsteps, Rollie discovered that he wanted to rap at the tender age of 13. His mother had other plans; she wanted him to pursue a career in journalism, so he attended journalism school in Virginia. Finding the insular environment stifling, the burgeoning rapper quickly decided to ditch the books in pursuit of his goal, and still, by 18, Rollie had established a name for himself as a tough music critic, writing for the Brooklyn-based Stylus webzine and the influential Pitchfork Media.

Afterparty Babies explores friends and feelings, crews and club nights, hometowns and heroes, media and fashion. The recognized wordsmith continues to push the theme, surrounded by socially conscious commentary, and personal subject matter while dropping it over punishing electronic dance jams.
