Capo (rapper)
View on GrokipediaEarly life
Family background
Marvin Carr was born on April 22, 1993, in Chicago, Illinois.[1] He had older brothers named Rio, Big Dub, and Doowop, as well as a younger brother who later became affiliated with the NLMB street organization.[5] Carr was cousins with fellow GBE rapper Mario "Big Glo" Hess, who was killed in a shooting in 2011.[1]Childhood and early influences
Carr grew up on Chicago's South Side in neighborhoods such as O'Block (Parkway Gardens) and Front Street, areas known for their socio-economic challenges and gang activity.[5] His early life was shaped by the urban environment of these communities, where he became involved with local street groups including O'Block and Front Street affiliates, later associating with NLMB (No Limit Muskegon Boys).[5] Immersed in the burgeoning Chicago drill scene during his teenage years, Carr's influences included the raw street-oriented music and culture of the South Side, leading to his entry into rapping around 2012.[5]Career
Beginnings and mixtapes (2012–2016)
Capo emerged in Chicago's drill music scene in the early 2010s, aligning with Chief Keef and joining Glory Boyz Entertainment (GBE) around its founding in 2011.[6] As an unsigned artist initially, he built a local following through features on GBE projects and independent tracks that emphasized street life, gang affiliations, and survival in Chicago's South Side.[1] His raw lyricism and energetic delivery contributed to the collective's sound, appearing on mixtapes like Chief Keef's Bang series and Fredo Santana's Fredo Kruger.[7] In 2013, Capo released his debut mixtape G.L.O.N.L. (Glo Life or No Life) independently via GBE, featuring 16 tracks with collaborations including Chief Keef on "Hate Me" and production from Young Chop.[8] The project captured the gritty aesthetics of drill, with songs like "SRT8" and "Swag School" gaining underground traction through platforms like WorldStarHipHop and DatPiff.[9] This release solidified his role within Glo Gang, the rebranded GBE, amid the label's rising prominence in hip-hop.[2] Leading up to 2015, Capo continued recording, releasing G.L.O.N.L. 2 in March and Welcome 2 Chiraq later that year, both showcasing his ties to the drill movement with tracks like "Forgiatos" and "Glo Gang."[10] These mixtapes, distributed digitally, highlighted themes of loyalty and urban violence, reflecting the environment of his Englewood neighborhood. His work during this period, though not charting commercially, influenced the broader Chicago rap wave and earned respect within the drill community.[5] Capo was actively preparing more material, including sessions in Los Angeles, before his death in July 2015.[3]Breakthrough and major releases (2017–2020)
Following Capo's death, several posthumous projects were released by GBE affiliates. In 2015, G.L.O.N.L. 3 surfaced with select tracks, though a full version remained unreleased until fan compilations in later years.[11] The most notable posthumous mixtape, Welcome 2 Chiraq Part 2, arrived in 2017, featuring unreleased verses and collaborations with Glo Gang members like Lil Durk and Ballout.[12] This 20-track effort continued his drill style, with production emphasizing heavy 808s and auto-tune, and received attention in hip-hop circles for preserving his legacy.[13] During 2018–2020, additional unreleased tracks and features appeared on streaming platforms, including appearances on tribute compilations and GBE retrospectives. No major solo releases occurred, but his earlier work saw renewed streams, particularly "Hate Me," which amassed millions of plays on Spotify as of 2020.[14] These efforts highlighted Capo's enduring influence on Chicago drill, though the label's internal issues limited broader distribution.[1]Recent work and collaborations (2021–present)
Since 2021, no new posthumous albums have been officially released for Capo as of November 2025. Unreleased snippets and fan-curated playlists continue to circulate on platforms like YouTube and SoundCloud, maintaining interest among drill enthusiasts.[15] His catalog, including classics like G.L.O.N.L., remains available on streaming services, with over 100,000 monthly listeners on Spotify, reflecting sustained legacy within the Glo Gang narrative.[14] Collaborations from his lifetime, such as features on Chief Keef's projects, occasionally resurface in remasters, but no significant new developments have emerged.Discography
