Cappo

Long time collaborators rapper Cappo and producer Styly Cee last appeared as a co-headline duo on 2008’s ‘H-Bomb’ EP. Featuring heavy beats and carefully selected samples, the release was billed as a precursor to a full album, for which we’ve been waiting patiently for ever since. Of course, last year Cappo released his excellent ‘Genghis’ LP, which Styly contributed to, but the full collaborative album finally arrives this week.

Entitled ‘The Fallout’, the album is being digitally released by Son Records in four parts, ahead of the vinyl and CD being made available on 6 Jun. Part one is out today, via iTunes and Bandcamp. The full album is a solid piece of work from beginning to end, and this first instalment gives a tantalising taste of what to expect. Cappo’s sharp lyrics delivered in his heavy Nottingham accent are present, of course, as is Styly’s production heavy funk-influenced sound, though on later instalments you’ll hear him move into more electronic pastures.
