An embodiment of controlled chaos, Atlanta, GA native Capt is a hip-hop maverick blazing his own undeniable trail. Effortlessly gliding over beats with a California King Snake-like finesse, yet striking with venomous precision when the moment calls, he isn’t just another Atlanta rapper floating in an endless sea of rap phenoms; he’s a captain navigating uncharted sonic territories, seamlessly blending the grit of trap with the poetic fluidity of contemporary rap storytelling. His voice alone demands attention—gravelly yet smooth, commanding yet conversational—making every bar feel both larger-than-life and deeply personal. What sets Capt apart is his ability to shapeshift, adapting his delivery to the mood of the beat while maintaining a signature presence that is both flamboyant and introspective.
To give you a taste of what this lyrical maestro is capable of, his newest project is dubbed “City On Lock” and features 9 tracks. Whether he’s flexing with audacious bravado or diving into raw, unfiltered truths, his wordplay and cadence hit with a calculated intensity. He makes this project feel less like any ordinary collection and more like an immersive experience—his lifestyle, his attitude, and his energy all pouring into the music, making a listener feel like they’re riding shotgun through his world.
I love the variety offered here—the trap-banging club anthems, the haunting beats that are intoxicating, the emotionally accessible and contemplative jams, and the empowering anthems meant to inspire that hustle spirit inside you.
“Nervous” is a certified anthem. Sonically, Capt leans into bass-heavy, club-ready production, crafting an anthem that feels just as at home in a party as it does blasting out of car speakers in the middle of the block. An anthem for the streets and clubs, this banger sees Capt rap about the excesses, blending street flamboyance and confidence in a catchy and infectious manner that leaves an aftertaste of the jam long after the final notes melt away. This will have you feeling the vibe in no time…it’s an irresistible anthem for days!
“BTBU” is another energetic masterpiece—bold, reckless, and undeniably infectious. Here, Capt embodies the spirit of someone who says exactly what’s on his mind, making the music a celebration of confidence, independence, and straight-up fun. The beat is a killer, cinematic and demanding attention with its resounding presence as his unmistakable vocals and cadence blend agreeably with the beats, creating this infectious rhythm you can’t get over.
“Getting’Bread” is another infectious trap anthem that sees Capt blend the grittiness of street rap with an undeniable sense of fun, sexiness, and empowerment. His flows are agile yet deliberate, his charisma undeniable as the guest femcee’s memorable voice of the streets—raw, unfiltered, and effortlessly charismatic—delivers with the kind of energy that makes you feel like you’re in the middle of a wild, no-holds-barred conversation with your most brazen homegirl.
“Surf” has a haunting presence that makes it feel like you’re floating on air as the intoxicating delivery, reminiscent of an artist like Future, makes you feel like you are high on drugs. This track is a personal favorite for so many reasons, and that production is one of them!
With “City On Lock,” Capt thrives on authenticity, bringing a bold, unbothered confidence to every beat he touches. He doesn’t just perform—he talks his talk, making you feel every word with his signature Southern drawl, effortlessly cool delivery, and catchy, no-nonsense hooks.
