About
Cadence Weapon
Label: Upper Class
Deemed by Dazed and Confused as "hip hop's saviour", Cadence Weaponcontinues to firmly establish his legacy as a sonic pioneer while constantly
pushing the rap and electronic music envelope. Following his critically
acclaimed, Polaris Music Prize nominated albums Breaking Kayfabe and

hybrid of psychedelic soul, old school rap, IDM and mutant disco; Hope In
Dirt City is a groundbreaking achievement in hip hop, and Cadence Weapons'
third Polaris Music Prize nominated album.
