Capo Lee releases new mixtape featuring Manga Saint Hilare, Sir Spyro and Jammz
The 10-track album was recorded in six hours
Grime champion Capo Lee returns with the third instalment of his ‘Why Not’ mixtape series, gathering artists and producers to record a project in one studio session.
Artists and producers that appear on the project include Rinse FM’s Sir Spyro, Manga Saint Hilare and Jammz.
The session was recorded at Pirate Studios in Notting Hill, with previous ones taking place at London’s Red Bull Studios.
Speaking on the project, Capo explains, “I enjoy the challenge of working under pressure and seeing what we just naturally create, it’s the most organic form of making music, Also I get to gather artists in the studio that haven’t had the chance to work together, which also gives them the chance to network with each other."
He added, "This one was a lot different, it was a lot more artists so it was a bit more difficult to manage but we did an it was a success. Big shouts out to Myiah too for getting the artwork done in record time she smashed it, proud of that".
‘Why Not Vol 3’ is out now and can be streamed on Apple Music and Spotify.
