Edmonton rapper Cadence Weapon\u2014also known as Roland Pemberton\u2014has returned with his fourth album. It\u2019s his first in six years, but Cadence Weapon hasn\u2019t lost touch with his roots or his ability to weave quality rhymes over unique beats.<\/p>\n

Over 11 tracks, Cadence Weapon makes use of observation and self-awareness to write stories about modern living. The sentimental \u201cFive Roses\u201d and danceable \u201cHigh Rise\u201d tackle life in the big city through different lenses.

Pemberton successfully uses electronic beats to give these stories texture and motion.<\/p>\n
