Cameron J. Mann better known as Young Capo is a rapper, song writer and CEO of Royalty & Loyalty Records. He released his debut Mixtape “Black” in 2008. Receiving numerous plays, critical acclaim and success. Born and raised for much of the early part of his life in the streets of St. Paul, Minnesota, life was not easy growing up for Young Capo. Despite rough times and struggles that some couldn't even imagine, the rapper never sold drugs or became gang affiliated. After immersing himself in the music, Young Capo finally discovered his craft at the age of 14.
Filling up notebooks with rhymes, he began recording his music, and picking up confidence and experience in the process. With people in the Midwest region taking notice, Young Capo is ready to spread his music. And unlike most rap rookies that have their sights set on merely catching the next short-lived buzz single, he's focused on the qualities that only the greatest MC's have. His lyrical ability, authentic voice combined with his struggles and tales of coming from nothing, and his insane ability to ride a beat smoothly and passion makes Young Capo unique. As Young Capo rises and the buzz around this up-and-coming artist continues to grow, a major label is soon to take notice.
With a large team backing him, and ongoing support from fans and foes alike, it won't be long before Young Capo becomes a household name. He is more than ready to stand out and carry the torch for his city, and finally put Minneapolis on the map.
