Kap G is a well known Mexican American rapper, known for his collaboration with Chief Kief and Wiz Khalifa.
Early years
He was born on July 31, 1994 in College park in Atlanta, Georgia. He has four brothers and one sister so he obviously grew up in a big family which he sometimes needed to take care of.
His both parents are Mexican and he grew up living in a very tough, mostly black neighbourhood. Kap G had a hard time growing up because he had to finish high school, take care of his siblings and stay out of trouble in a neighbourhood that didn’t like him.
His parents worked very hard to bring him up so they were very disappointed after he made his decision to pursue his rapping career after finishing Tri-Cities High School. It seems like it was a good idea after all.
Career Development
Kap G released his debut single “Tatted Like Amigos“ together with a famous Chicago rapper Chief Keef and that was a big push to his career. The great thing was that his name got recognized in the very beginning so he didn’t have a hard time later.
This brought attention to him and he signed a deal with Atlantic Records.
His music speaks of his Mexican descent on which he is proud of, and the lyrics are mixed: he raps both in English and in Spanish. He says he was never ashamed for who he was and that no one should be. That is one reason why he became so popular so quick.
In 2014 he released a mixtape named Like a Mexican and it became a huge hit.
In addition to contributing to the film’s soundtrack, Kap G appeared briefly in the 2015 feature Dope. He ended up being a good actor too and he said he enjoyed making it so he will also think about pursuing his movie career too. He plays the role of Fidel and was provided an acting coach to train him for this role. The movie starred stars such as Rakim Mayers, Blake Anderson, and Bruce Beatty.
In 2016, Kap released his album “Girlfriend” which went out to be one of the biggest hits of 2016.
Personal life
Kap G doesn’t talk about his private life a lot and wants to protect his family which doesn’t like publicity. He shares some things about his life on social media and the rest is pretty much a secret.
He spends a lot of his free time with his family, because they were raised to stick together no matter what.
