Que pasa homes? - ATL Rapper Kap G Heads to Mexico City to Find His Roots
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 авг 2024
- Born and raised in Atlanta’s College Park neighborhood to immigrant parents from Mexico, Kap G is poised to be ATL's first Mexican-American rap star - one who has made it his mission to be a voice for the culture, overturning stereotypes with his music.
As his star rises stateside, Remezcla took Kap back to his roots: Mexico. We followed him on his first trip to Mexico City, where he had a chance to perform his music as part of Festival Marvin, see a side of his culture he rarely witnessed growing up in College Park, and reflect on his journey as an artist.

Kap G is the type of Mexican that talks english to his paisa mom
Lmao
hahaha he dope tho
Hes dope af thats why im on here. Much love and respeck to Kap G. Yall know i was just clowning on that vato vato vatoo
nigga.. didn't I just comment on one of your posts on Instagram? lol
OnAComeUpChea nah Lmao probably idk what post you talking about
i respect him for wearing that 2pac shirt
mexicans always relate to 2pac like everyone
💯
We love 2pac in Mexico.
Jake Sully that's dope
Pac solidified himself with us because of the struggles he saw.
Then came to live and die in L.A. . Very few people get a pass in every barrio.
Pac could go to a barrio in peace and receive nothing but love.
RICH BLACK KID STFU. Be quiet.😑
people hating on Kap-G because his Spanish isn't good. who the fuck cares, he's proud if his roots and is in Mexico because he loves his family culture. besides Spanish comes from Spain, before Mexico was Mexico, the people who were living their were Aztecs and Aztecs didn't speak Spanish
what bro Spain Spanish is not the same Spanish from Mexico get your facts straight .
+Famous JR But he is right about the Aztecs thing
Famous JR Finish school first then talk, but let me educate you. In the year 1519 Hernan Cortez (Spanish Conquistador) and his men arrived to what is now called Mexico. He murdered the Aztecs, raped their women, and brought diseases. The remaining Aztec people were forced to adapt to the Spanish culture including to learn how to speak Spanish. Aztec's had a different language but no one knows what their origin language is because the Spanish erased it from them.
+Chicago Street TV the mejica aka "aztecs" spoke nahuatl
+Chicago Street TV its not a mystery
I was a rapper back in the day, but now I work at Walmart.
Lol
lmfao.
well at lest ju work
Even if for slave master Walmart f
I
hahahahaha
that is good
Idk where most of you that are hating are from but I'm Mexican American from Los Angeles and you see it all here! nothing but love for the carnales and black brothas ✌️️
Man, I see a kid with a good & humble heart!! Salute 💯
I really don't see the problem, there have always been latino rappers since the 90's. South Park Mexican, Lucky Luciano, Fat Joe, Big Pun, Cuban Link, and Noreaga because I think he's half latino. But anyways, Mexicans struggle in america too, just like the blacks but in a totally different way. But hey, thanks to white supremacy that screwed up with both races, blacks and latinos are expected to hate on each other for their skin color. So I think he have every right to rap about how hard he had it growing up in his neighborhood, especially a black neighborhood.
Also kid cudi is also like half Mexican
Dat nigga Roger he is dominican, I had to look that fact up.
Now that's the Truth
word up bruh 💯
W
Ain't this that nigga from Dope? You know the one that gave the Bag Speech.
it is
Yeah looked him up and he is.
I was thinking the same thing
damn. I knew I seen this dude before haha
Yea!!!!!
Police: where r u from ??
Kap G: my parents r frum Mesco but im frum Atlanta
That made me laugh out loud.
I'm 16 and I'm a Mexican rapper as well Kap G is my biggest inspiration I have mad love for all races no matter what real talk. I've been told rap is block people music I've had black people tell me to stop because it's "not my music" but I just ignore that because I know what my music is and Ima keep grindin 🇲🇽💪🏽
Andrizzle_29 im also a mexican rapper, lets make magic bro. Lets do for our cultre my instgram: @pedrosaul.g my email: pedrosaul629@gmail.com
they're just haters... I m Mexican and Guatemalan but I was never told anything lol..
2:39 do i grab this with my hand? Lmao😂💀
being a first generation immigrant, this made me REALLY happy to see. My view on kap g has definitely changed. I have nothing but respect for him. Too many people like him, end up forgetting their roots and where they came from. This man made a REAL EEFORT to connect with his people. Love this shit.
6:20 Nigga like...Hell naw! I saw Annabelle, you aint gettin me with that Mexican Voodoo! Hahaha xD
Bree K. lmao you ain't lying. where u from?
+CHECK OUT MY TRAILER [BASED ON ACTUAL EVENTS] I'm black & Moroccan from Long Beach, CA.... We got our fair share of old haunted houses here too Lol.
Bree K. voodo from africa
There were LOTS of Africans in Mexico at one point. Actually, many Mexicans have African ancestors. Pretty cool!
Bree K. baba is on his way
I've been to mexico three times and it's definitely a cool feeling
This video made me hungry as fuck
the Latino community is his biggest critic
his own people smh
Hahahahah
You're own always hates you. And the ones that don't know you always see you as motivation.
in the US we are our biggest critics because historically our people in the US have tried to be everything but Mexican, from being white washed to being black washed. In the 90s Kid Frost released "La Raza" because he noticed our people were ashamed to be Mexican & that brought some pride back. Now our people don't care about their culture/history, are quick to stand up for other people but not their own, are so ashamed of who they are that they are willing to fight their own before gaining understanding & knowledge of their history.
Maybe in the south cause here in eastern WA you’d think his entire fan base is from here
I've never heard his music but this film is too good representing our culture. Blessings for him, buena mierda.
we do everything for 🇲🇽 and respect our culture and out big beautiful country 🇲🇽🐐
@John Doe blacks don't own this country & trump don't like y'all neither bitch
Yo! I ain’t ever heard of lil homie ever until this video popped up in my feed. After watching, I wanna know more, hear more. The fact that he is a proud Mexican American man. Just as I am a proud Native American non-binary person. We are the same, indigenous people of the Americas. Also, what topped it for me was to see that he isn’t afraid to show and embrace his culture and spirituality. Him showing his visit to La Virgen de Guadalupe, as a person who grew up in Catholicism, and my native culture. I grew up knowing how important that image is to both our people. I’m glad he was proud to show that. That he’s humble, and greatful for the blessings of his talent. I fux with him now! Big ups lil homie. Continue to make your people proud! La Raza!
I am not Mexican, but I highly respect their work in all facets of society. I think it is cool if anyone of any culture researches their background. You go Kap G. I thought you were excellent in Dope. I hope you exceed all your expectations in music, film and beyond. You represent second generation Mexicans in a new way and I think that is great. Do not listen to the haters. Reach for the stars. Some people just can not stand originality.
remember him wen he was young went to middle school together he was nothing like rite now.. good work. bro keep it up wuey
Kap G's DNA might reveal through a DNA test that he's part Spanish, Native American, etc; but his souls DNA is part African American. Because Some of our African American Brothers and sisters showed him love and treated Him like one of their own. Thanks to them they helped guide him into becoming the successful raper which he is today. All Mexicans and Mexican Americans should support and admire him. Because even though he may talk and act different he is still Mexican American with an African American soul. There's truly no crime in that. He grew up with his African American bros and sis possibly because it was part of his destiny. We shouldn't judge or hate him for that. He's a true romodel for our Mexican American youth. Showing then that they to can become somebody great in a world that lies to us making us believe that we can only go so far. So let's not judge him and accept him the way that he is. Human beings need to master the art of respecting each other's differences already.
Wooooooooooooooooooooooord! Bitches wooooooooooooooooooooooord!
Fools straight up native barely any spanish like most mexicans in the u.s
this guy has obviously native , European and African features.
@@michaelsanchezjimenez704 dog I don't see the
European or African straight up native
@@ramonmendez8961 it's cause most Mexicans who are "mestizos" are actually more white whether they don't want to accept it... Jessica alba is like 90 -80% European and those native genes are strong.
NOW I TRULY understand why he was able to make it on the 2017 XXL Freshman Cover, so I definitely see him becoming a legend in the game...Salute to Kap G 💯💯🐐🐐
Im a Guatemalan Female born in La raised in Georgia
I was raised Edith my black ppl also
In happy you are also learning your roots
Great job! Keep it Up!!
yo this the dude from the movie 'DOPE'
U͞ᴋɴᴏᴡɴ lmao i was thinkin that to
U͞ᴋɴᴏᴡɴ He is. He said it in an interview
no it's not
the original Mexican rapper is still Carlos coy aka spm
no it aint. I bet you a bandwagon fan
+Cyqro HD I'm from South Texas spm would've first Mexican rapper to make it big if he didn't goto jail
+A Flo he was big. but to say he was the 1st meskin rapper? Grimm was rapping before him
+Cyqro HD grimm was in the same.click w spm and we could go on for days bout rappers but from deep south Texas where I'm at chingo bling pit bull and grimm were opening for spm.
Yea there would be a kap g without spm but we can't to that to our people
He isn't the most submerged in Mexican culture, but he is himself and that deserves respect.
Really blacks embrace MEXICAN CULTURE and MEXICANS BLACK CULTURE WERE FAMILY LOVE US
And what the fuck are u🤔 cause ... Corey Miller sounds white as fuck 🤣.. awww are u trying to be cool and join whats trending huh .. trying to fit in where you can get in. Cause rock and country music really ain't all that Hip
@@boigold09 if you were going to be racist you could’ve just said that😃👍
@@iamcamendy shut up square raise your hand if u wanna talk to me
kap-G , King Lil G , Cartel MGM , Snow Tha Product, Reckless Cartel are the future of Latin Hip-Hop
SadBoy Loko too. he was on YG new album he pretty tight to me
Baldacci, Sick Jacken, Cynic, 2Mex, Sir Reaper and about 50 others are the real dudes, most of the dudes you mention can hardly rhyme.
GT Garza, Dezzy Hollow good too, GH Pancho is ok
+Albert Varela GT Garza be snappin! TEXAS in tha house!
Chicago Street TV how you gonna forget lil xan, Ramirez, Shakewell, dirty sanchez
When you been in that same airport and seen that Mexico sign so many times 😮😮
Been listening to this dude since he first started and shit he's come a long way. Super dope that he actually appreciates his roots and culture. Most people that can speak Spanish fluently can't even get to his level of cultural appreciation. Your own people will always be your number one haters, that's sad. Keep doing you perrito.
So much respect for Kap G man I completely understand where he's coming from as I'm from a predominant African American neighborhood as well. I'm glad he's reppin for la raza 🤘🏽 props
I fuck with him for even acknowledging that his homies are black people. A lot of mexicans be hating hard as fuck on black dudes even though they we're inspired by us in a lot of ways so real for that one
I never heard of this dude but I'm going to check him out because from what I can see from this short documentary he respects the culture he was raised with but also wants to embrace and learn about the culture that made him, fuck how he speaks and raps he's humble and I can dig that.
I'm Mexican and my neighbors are black and I've been cool with they family forever.
+Vincent Olvera that's whats up. Not everybody is like that. That's why Kap G is unique too cuz he hangs with niggas lol you can hear it in his voice he talk like a south nigga i'm6 hours from Atlanta and they talk similar in my city.
This fucking guy don't what he saying there probably a reason Mexicans don't like him . He probably a idiot where most people don't like you . So insecure .....
We inspire each other foo thats how we make movements in this white country
Thats wassup G going back to your roots somethin many rappers today aint doin
respect for people who are proud of their past and not ignorant to their roots and ancestors... from now on i will bump his music and recommend him...
props to the team who did this short documentary it came out really well. 👌
keeping la cultura viva , Viva Mexico cabrones!! 🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽
Kap G seems like a humbled dude.....
That's right man keep representing us Mexicans. Don't pay attention to what our peeps say. Do you, but do it right young man! Always respect everyone. Don't get caught up in that negativity social media stuff. God Bless you!
born in mexico raised in USA, came here at the age of 5 learned english in a year now im 22.i droped out of hs and got my ged to start working and help my mom of 4 kids.school would have been a waist of time for me, but to any kids reading this keep on with them books and try to make the change that you dont see happening, influenced by american culture changed me but i will never forget who i truly am and i embrace my roots and culture just like anybody else should! Most Respects to KapG! im still in the struggle but i will never give up as long as i breath! as that is the mayan/azteca warrior blood in me!
Hermoso mi lindo México..🇲🇽🇲🇽
why does every hispanic rapper have g
Real_ NewNoise cuz we g's
C Gonzalez GTFOH
Lol how are you G'z and scared of white and blackmen you guys have to kill black men. 5 to 1 lol i heard about shit like that. fuck mexcans love to other groups of Latino
Real_ NewNoise cuz we invented g
Real_ NewNoise why' does African American have Young
why do so many latinos have hate and racism towards Kap G....just because he doesn't fit the mexican stereotype?!....like wtf he's still mexican...he just grew up in Atlanta where it's predominantly black, so he's not pretending, that's how he really speaks....why so much hate against the black race?...us Latinos and blacks should be united...black and brown power🇲🇽✊
Respect for Kap G. Can’t hate on him for his grind. Massive respect. People gotta respect others persons accent. Fat Joe don’t speak spanish and he a proud boricua.
the street food in Mexico is better than those 5 start restaurant
Simon creo q es neta wey
Luis Toribio Simón
Es la neta bro
Shit when I left to Mexico, I was really excited. But you really don't fit in if you can't speak Spanish properly. Many people also be discriminating about how you are from the US and shit and laugh when they hear you speak english. I really do love México but I hate some of its people
Yung Hydrate You’ll find people like that everywhere not just only in Mexico
Kap G! Ay man keep doing your thang my boy, I said it from the beginning if any Mexican rapper is going to make it big in this rap shit is going to be you. Fuck all these haters talking about you ain't Mexican enough or whatever, just do your thang. I grew up in L.A. listening to all the west coast legends, but it would of been nice growing up listening to a rapper of my color and heritage, and I think I speak for a lot of us. La raza needs you my dude, and we gon support you as long as you keep bringing that fire music.
i fuck with homie. i can see he's doing his own thing
Roots are in the heart , that's Mexico .
this niggah is sick wit it. He got 2Pac up in Mexico lol
TREBLE84 your channel is garbage
TREBLE84 lmfao you really think I watched your videos? They fucking shit I don’t even have to click on them. I have no videos and you only got 2 more subs then me. That’s pretty fucking sad.
Buy him a sombrero then
I'm from Atl too I was raised around afroamerican people my friends r black too and my parents r from Mexico City and I love hip hop but I also love 🌮
i respect the struggle and the humbleness. will forever be a fan and Kap G will and is one of my inspiration, being mexican myself growing up ij amerika, ima come up too, thank you kap g!
Keep Grinding Bro. You'll be up their with the best!
i can relate with him cuz im from detroit and im mexican✊👍
Dustin Heath Thats not how it works... You can still be mexican if your from wherever or atleast half.
Dustin Heath Dumbest remark I've heard in a while
Mexican is not a race
Yeah and i bet 1,000,000 that you sound black too
That dude seems humble as fuck ,much luv.
I’m from Atlanta too y tambien soy Mexicano and I’m proud🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽💯💯⚽️⚽️
"Ta perrrronaa esa rola" lol
Kinda odd his parents came to the u,s which makes him first generation so how is it he won't speak Spanish ? I know 3-4 gen Chicanos who speak proper Spanish no hate thou
His family was the only Mexican family where he is from. So there was much more english use than Spanish
that's what I say don't pretend this nigga here
+Adrian Alaniz i was raised the same way n i speak Spanish fluently
+love n pain hahahaha nigga keep it 100 or the people shut you down my bro is saying the truth Kap G just keep it real.
+Famous JR he sure did
I hardly fuck with his music but I just got so much love for this guy repping us Mexicans right I can't help but love him
It is written With God all things are possible with Kap G all things are possible you already are the number one rapper in the world believe it inside of yourself feeling inside of yourself and it shall come to pass you spoke it into existence my man much blessings and love to you and your family and the friends and your fans greetings from Arizona mijo.
its cool af that he did this but kap g aint mexican he a nigga. i consider him black just cause he was raised with african americans
does he look blacn to you? don't be an idiot. I remember growing up around blacks and talking like this. As I started associating with different people from different ethnicities, maily white people, I started to lose my "ghetto talk."
That don't make sense homie I'm mexican born and raised in LA us mexicans and blacks grew up together!! No one calls us niggas reguardless if we love 2pac or if we love jordans!! It's called evolution!!
u dumb af
race is a socially constructed idea. It really doesn't exist, well just one the human race
THE KILLUMINATI then why say he a nigga idiot. if he's just a human like you say think before you type
Shit.. ive been walking in all those places, all my life. Feels strange see them in some documentary
That's dope. I wanna visit one day
Your city look live bro.
this made me inspire myself more in the music im making hopefully one day i can collabe with kap hope he does become number 1 one day
Much love Kap G on learning about your roots. Now just need to learn about your trade (rap/hip hop) roots... carlos coy aka spm. The first Mexican rapper coming from an all black hood.... viva la raza ✊🏽😑🇮🇹
I'm proud a Mexican rapper is making a name for himself, but why does this dude act like he's never come in contact with Mexican culture? Yeah he grew up with mostly blacks but I'm sure his household still was true to Mexican culture being that his parents immigrated from there. It's cool that he fit in with the people around him but it's bogus that he decided to ignore his own culture.
Jonathan Montiel he probably was in the street 24/7 and hardly at home. duhh
Jar B okay so when he had to speak with his parents they had to use hand gestures or some shit? That's doing your parents dirty
Jonathan Montiel we all grow in touch w our roots differently. my mother was raised by an English Irishman in America, but she's bilingual and knows where she comes from. I don't speak Spanish all that well because most of my friends were white and black. I have an accent when I speak Spanish but that doesn't make me any less Mexican. AND I'm fluent in German because my mom is half. get over it, in America it's usually multicultural in populated areas (ex. Atlanta, and California ), it's not like that in Mexico... youre either a bilingual, or speak only Spanish or only speak your native tongue.
Jonathan Montiel lmaoo
Jonathan Montiel mind you, Spanish isn't the native language of Mexico. it does not make him any less of a Mexican American if doesn't speak another European language.
yoo same i was the only Mexican friend when i lived in Georgia but i moved to Anaheim CA
Rodrigo Hernandez ayeeee
lol where did you live ?
Rodrigo Hernandez let's us three hangout , lits hit the gym an get tacos after :))
im down lol but im
actually only 15
Rodrigo Hernandez im 17 lmao what's your ig ,? follow me bro Joe.pure
I'm salvadorean american, i grew with nothing but black folk around they abraised me and my culture, that does make me or other people in the same situation less Latino, i love my culture and proud to be who i am!
Y'all hating on this dude way to much, cmon take the hate out of your hearts, I don't act like I'm from Africa but I'm proud of my roots,same with him.
its funny how he said how these rappers take there lingo... BUT he aint hating, then on the flipside u got mexicans on trap beats saying nigga like its cool... dont easily be influinced DO U
🇲🇽🇲🇽🇲🇽👍🏽raza
I watch this when it came I told my self I would become a Latino rapper because of him , now I’m happy to bring up my culture through my voice , fuck la migra they just took my primos imma stand out for all of us from Texas 💯🇲🇽 shoutout to peso peso and Yunging baby and lucky 🍀
being humble will create a bigger love from your fans and your on the right path keep up the good work brotha #latinosunites
No matter if you born or not in Mexico you are one of us
All that food making me hungry
This is why you don't stop amigo all the way to chicago where only the fresh inspires me !!!!!. My respect and admiration to you vato 😍
Nice, Bro always remember where you came from, and be proud of your humble beginnings.
this is considered a docimentary or some sort of vlog?
"I thought the audience was gonna be people with cowboy hats and belt buckles…" LOL You're in Mexico City boy! A metropolitan four times the size of Atlanta. Why are so many americans ignorant? Are your schools that bad? I dig Kap G tho I'm just saying he sounded a bit ignorant saying that...
Nice to see him go back and this time for him to be able to experience Mexico City!
I get it he's from a black neighborhood but I still don't get the fact that he cant speak good Spanish ,,I doubt his parents talked English too him all his life
El Mexicano so what about the mexicans that be in america over 30 yrs n can't speak english?
Spanish isn't Mexicans first lauange
I'm pretty sure he speaks Spanish to his parents or when he HAS to speak it but he speaks English mostly because that's how most mexican Americans grow up. When I would go to school most of the days its all about talking in English and u never know if his parents worked night shift and slept during the day so they probably didn't communicate as much. At least that was my case. I only spoke Spanish to my parents only to them. And when I went to Mexico I was forced to speak Spanish and even ppl in Mexico would tell me that I speak weird or that I have an accent. For that reason before I went to Mexico I didn't speak much Spanish. But now I do. You never know how he grew up don't judge. He isn't the only one
El Mexicano subscribe
Alot of foreigners dont really keep the traditions goin with their kids when they come to america THOUGH....alot of polynesians cant speak their language alot of native Americans even though they are born in AMERICA cant reelly spek their language also....so its not his FAULT that hes2 the way he is...jus like its not my fault that im born in AMERICA....cheer up love he knows who he is and what he is and its how he grew up.....its what his FAMILY had to do....they did the best they could...and regardless of what he he turned out to be a beautiful SOUL
for the ignorant people that follow the criminals label on our people we are not Latino and not hispanic ...mexicans mexicas indigenous to this continent ..indigenous pride ! indigenous land ! always will be ..never forget 1492 .
Mexican is not a race. There are native, White, Mestizos, Castizos, Black, Mulatos, etc.
Indigenous Pride!!!! I’m Native Paiute, Shoshone, Mvskoke, and Seminole. All indigenous people from the top of Canada, to the tip of South America. We been here, we still here, and we will always be here! We are all one people. It’s because of the white man and the division they created as to why most no longer recognize that.
I glad YOU CAME home TO México TO SEE HOW WE get down
I am fortunate enough to say I was able to visit this Amazing country 2 times! I would really like to go back!
