About the Author
HisBrother Pebz is a Scarborough-born creative, barber, and cultural observer with roots that run deep through the east end of Toronto. A first-generation Filipino-Canadian, he was raised in a household of tradition, surrounded by the raw rhythm of Scarborough streets, Caribbean influence, and the grind of immigrant life. Before the fades and the verses, it was always basketball. Courts taught him patience, pressure, and pride. Barbershops taught him presence. Life taught him pain—and how to move through it. After losing his brother in 2016, everything shifted. Music became therapy. Cutting hair became clarity. And writing became a way to pass down wisdom—not just for his son, but for anyone trying to break cycles and build something real. Scarborough State of Mind is his debut book. It’s not about being perfect—it’s about being present. Real. Intentional. Spiritual. Rooted. This is for the ones still searching. Still healing. Still here.
