Whilst he may not be a household name in Australia (just yet), back in his home of Cape Town, South Africa YoungstaCPT is kind of a big deal. And that's being modest. The 25 year old rapper has been described as the voice of the people, with his lyrical brilliance acting as a verbal tour guide to life in the notorious Cape Town flats.
With a huge 29 mixtapes, numerous EPs and accolades under his belt, YoungstaCPT is regarded as one of the most important South African emcees of this generation. Now he's bringing his sounds to Australia, with a string of shows in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Wollongong, as well as being the only International guest at The Plot Festival in Parramatta.
Next month, YoungstaCPT will be heading to our shores for the second time. And he's excited...

"To be going down under for another tour is almost unbelievable to me seeing as I will be gigging for there for the 2nd time in same year. I definitely feel that we made a good 1st impression & now all we have to do is maximize every opportunity and prove to the audience that we are a force to be reckoned with as South African artists. My mission is to promote and create more awareness of Capetonian hip hop and show how unique and diverse our sound is..." - YoungstaCPT

From the boardroom, to the taxi rank, YoungstaCPT keeps his lyrics current, and more importantly, ever-changing. His experience in life, combined with what he sees on the streets is what creates a long-lasting impression on his followers. His devotion to Cape Town and eagerness to have the city grow bigger on the map is what generates a similar passion in others to be proud of where they come from, and where their foundation will always remain.
