CMU Approved
Approved: Cappo – Pyschological Warfare
By Andy Malt | Published on Thursday 18 February 2010
I’ve long been a fan of Nottingham-based rapper Cappo. His heavy-accented vocals and always interesting production have had me hooked from the first time I heard his track ‘The Looniest’, nestled away on a UK hip hop compilation a decade ago. Which means it’s very exciting that I can reveal exclusively that Cappo’s long awaited second album will hit stores on 6 Apr, with details of some very interesting limited edition formats to be announced soon.
The first single from the album, the double A-side ‘Loyalty/Gilgamesh II’, will be released on 15 Mar, but ahead of that Caps is giving away an exclusive stand-alone track, which will not appear on the LP. A good indication of what’s to come, so we’re told, ‘Psychological Warfare’ is built around a well-selected vocal sample, and features all the trademarks of a great Cappo track while still moving his sound forward. If he’s producing tracks of this standard that aren’t making it to the finished album, then we should have something very impressive to look forward to.
