Capitol

Capitol, a Dominican-American native was born on March 20, 1985 in Atlanta, GA where his father would give him his greatest gift, an early love for music. Growing up in da A' he spent countless hours watching his father, the first spanish disc jockey in Atlanta spin vinyl in the living room of thier home. To his dismay Capitol is surprised that his life experiences have led him to music. He always invisioned himself to be a baseball player, playing in San Pedro Maroris, Dominican Republic. But like the boy who cried wolf he could not pretend to be a baseball player anymore and the wolf that capitol is came to be. His road to the top has not been clad in gold but instead had been laden with adversity. To be a reggaeton artist in Atlanta can be an accomplishment on its own, but has been an everlasting struggle. His music however isn't of the typical reaggaton artist, with tracks like "So Sick" that sounds like a freakish love child of Pitbull meets Nirvana. Capitol credits influences like Daddy Yankee, Jay-Z, Outkast and Tego Calderon for helping him form his diverse delivery and swagger. The original style of English and Spanish lyrics immersed in the 808 drum beats is hard to stomach by your regular reggaton listeners. But Capitol understands and acknowledges this fact stating that "he has to be patient becuase its hard to be humble when you are ahead of your time."
