Bedroom Rapper is a book for obsessive music fans who are looking for the definitive take on what’s happened in the last two decades of hip hop, from Cadence Weapon, aka Rollie Pemberton: Pitchfork critic, award-winning musician, producer, DJ, and poet laureate.

Bedroom Rapper. Cadence Weapon on hip-hop, resistance, and surviving the music industry. Rollie Pemberton


Tracing his roots from recording beats in his mom’s attic in Edmonton to performing with some of the most recognizable names in rap and electronic music—De La Soul, Public Enemy, Mos Def, Questlove, Diplo, and more—Polaris Prize winner Rollie Pemberton, a.k.a Cadence Weapon, captures the joy in finding yourself, and how a sense of place and purpose entwines inextricably with a music scene.

From competitive basement family karaoke to touring Europe, from fights with an exploitative label to finding his creative voice, from protesting against gentrification to using his music to centre political change, Rollie charts his own development alongside a shifting musical landscape. As Rollie finds his feet, the bottom falls out of the industry, and he captures the way so many artists were able to make a nimble name for themselves while labels floundered. 

Bedroom Rapper also offers us a wide-ranging and crucial history of hip-hop. With an international perspective that’s often missing from rap music journalism, he integrates the gestation of American hip hop with UK grime and niche scenes from the Canadian prairies, bringing his obsessive knowledge of hip-hop to bear on his subject. Rollie takes us into New York in the ’70s, Edmonton in the ’90s, the legendary Montreal DIY loft scene of the 2000s, and traces the ups and downs of trusting your gut and following your passion, obsessively.

With a foreword by Gabriel Szatan, music fans and creators alike will relate to the dedication to craft, obsessive passion for what came before, and desire to shift the future that is embodied in every creative project Rollie takes on.

The Good, the Bard, and the Ugly. A play about Shakespeare at the end of his wit. Michele Daigle, Ron Kelly Spurles, and Don Rigley

The Good, the Bard, and the Ugly 🎭

January 14, 2023 @ 7:00 pm 9:00 pm

The Good, The Bard and the Ugly – written by and featuring Michelle Daigle, Ron Kelly Spurles, and Don Rigley. Presented by Live Bait Theatre and Frantically Atlantic.

The Good, the Bard, and the Ugly. A play about Shakespeare at the end of his wit. Michele Daigle, Ron Kelly Spurles, and Don Rigley

Will Shakespeare needs a new play for the Queen – in less than a week. Desperately he puts together bits and pieces of plays he’s been working on but has yet to produce. The result is a show with many of Shakespeare’s most famous characters, speaking some of his most famous lines – out of order, to the wrong character, and sometimes confused with other lines! The outcome is a humorous smorgasbord of love lost, love found, lust, dramatic tension and absurdity with love potions, sleeping potions and death potions! All of this, and music to boot.

Music from Frantically Atlantic at 7 pm, performance to follow at 7:30 pm.
