Shadcore is a hip-hop artist/ songwriter from St. Petersburg, Fl. Steering away from the typical rapper cliche Shadcore chooses to keep his lyrics profanity free yet still raw enough for you and your mom to enjoy! In 2015 he released his long awaited 4th album, "Oh My Shad!", which was recorded at SPC while attending the school's MIRA Program (Music Industry Recording Arts).
In 2012 Shadcore and his college classmate/ friend Jay "Jay Ack" Wilson co-founded a hip-hop ensemble at the college, after Wilson realized that there wasn't a spot for hip-hop in the school's current curriculum. What began as a semester long class has evolved into one of the biggest names in Tampa music, TRC (The Real Clash). A full fledged band, complete with guitar, keys, bass, drums and 3 vocalists TRC has a live set that is sure to electrify! Shadcore is the frontman and he uses his big booming voice to captivate the audience at the start of every show. They curiously gravitate to the front of the stage in sheer anticipation of an experience that they will not soon forget!
Shadcore finds as much fulfillment playing in the band as he does in his solo career. He writes, produces and he's even done voiceover work with VH-1 in the past. Currently his latest solo project is slated for a April 27th, 2018 release. The album is titled "AUX Tales", which Shadcore describes as "audio soul-food".
