Aaron’s job at the Polaris Music Prize during this pandemic-messed year was, literally, “make sure we have a winner.”
So it was with great effort and great relief, that on Sept. 27 it was revealed that Cadence Weapon’s Parallel World album had won the 2021 Polaris Music Prize.
CBC Music revealed the winning album during a live video presentation which also featured a performance from 2020 Polaris winner, Backxwash.
