CAPITAL V

Hailing from the streets of Toronto, Ontario, comes forth a rapid fire Mc, Capital "V" whose lyrics reflect the struggle's of life in poverty. Raised on Jane St, one of Toronto's most notorious streets, plagued with the presence of drugs, guns and crime, and at 9 years old this is the environment in which Capital first developed his skills to write his lyrics and has been expressing himself through them since. Capital started his career in the music industry alongside his previous band members Black Fidel, and Strik 9, of the group called "Deadly Weapons". They had gained a large fan base and continued to perform at many venues such as Comfort Zone, El Mocambo, Big Bop, and at many local High School talent shows. Unfortunately the group later parted ways but still remained strong in their support towards one another, especially their solo careers. Capital knew that this was not the end of the road for him and decided to take on the music industry again, but this time as a solo artist.

Now as a solo artist, Capital "V" has created a lot of buzz for himself, freestyling on the local radio stations such as DJ X's POWER MOVE (88.1 FM), MASTERMIND (89.5 FM), PROJECT BOUNCE (88.9/89.5 FM), 105.5 FM...etc.

Capital also got the opportunity of a lifetime to perform with Toronto's own legendary pioneer MC Frankie Payne, opening up for the Boot Camp Click, which later would help make his name become more and more popular throughout the GTA.

In 2006, Capital "V" appeared on several tracks for a mix tape called "Street Rebel, Rebel or Die" which had gotten heavy rotation on the radio. In 2007, Capital "V" teamed up with a childhood friend and also another Tdot rapper named Sling Dadz, to create the indie label "Street Code Ent. Canada”. Since then Capital "V" has appeared on various mix tapes and hip hop DVD’s.

To date, Capital "V" is featured on Sling Dadz classic "I'm from Jane remix" alongside Frankie Payne, Page, The Smugglaz, K-Fresh The Nem-S-Iss, Blacus Ninjah and many more. With the video being in heavy rotation, it sets the tone for Capital "V"'s introduction with a solo album he's currently working on which is sure to be a masterpiece, collaborating with top Canadian producers including Tone Mason and Mike Mills and many more to come, so stay tuned!
