Shad vs. Shad K.

It appears that of late he has been more commonly referred to as Shad rather than Shad K. See the links to his myspace page and at CBC Radio 3. Any objection to moving the page back to Shad (rapper)? --Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 03:21, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I also heard him being referred to as Shad on the radio. I'm going to assume that the move is not controversial. --Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 03:02, 17 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Seems appropriate, given that The Old Prince CD is identified as merely Shad, rather than Shad K. Dl2000 (talk) 01:04, 19 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the song "Resolutions"

I had added Resolutions by Said the Whale to his guest appearances, however it was removed - is this because there was no source? I've been unable to find a source for it, but it seems to be commonly accepted that he is indeed the rapper on the song. Spark017 (talk) 16:31, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Here is a source that confirms it is Shad. Paul Erik ^{(talk)(contribs)} 19:39, 15 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]
