YoungstaCPT is by far one of the realest, honest, and conscious rappers in the game today, hands down.
The rapper from Cape Town has been cosigned by almost every other established rapper in the country; from AKA, Cassper Nyovest, Kwesta, Riky Rick, Nasty C, Stogie T, the list goes on and on.
Despite all that, the award-winning rapper has always maintained to be as humbled as he can be, never blowing his own horn but making sure that his voice is heard through his music.
Speaking of his music, his debut studio album dubbed ‘3T’ a synonym for Things Take Time that was released two years ago was already considered a classic hip hop body of work before he reminded us today.
The ‘3T’ studio album has records that still make sense today despite being released a few years ago.

For the first time in a long time, YoungstaCPT talked about his studio album being a classic project and nobody can dispute that, absolutely nobody at all.

Prior to him winning the coveted SAHHA, DJ Ready D, and EmileYX were the first entertainers to have won the award.
