NoCap Releases New Mixtape, "The Main Bird"

Even when industry business gets in the way, it's always great to see an artist deliver to fans despite the hiccups. NoCap did just that and released The Main Bird, a seven-track mixtape. Moreover, it was originally going to contain 16 songs, but ran into sample clearance issues. While those get sorted out, the Alabama rapper's dropped more introspective melodic cuts and a few bangers to even his style out. Also, the track comes just days after his melodic feature on Monaleo's "Miss U Already."

While the 24-year-old is known to often get into those tuneful styles, he balances it out with some heat. Moreover, he recruited Rob49 and Rylo Rodriguez for some guest verses on the album. Rob delivers some aggressive energy over the Wheezy-produced "How It's Going." Meanwhile, Rylo dials things back on "Tight End" with some auto-tuned croons. However, NoCap remains the star of the show, and he kept up fast momentum after this year's Mr. Crawford with the single "DNA."

Although NoCap's continued to build that success, it's also resulted in some cut ties. He beefed with NBA YoungBoy recently via Instagram shots after YoungBoy wrote he doesn't mess with him anymore. Later, NoCap called YB a "hater."

“Let me know what I owe you," he wrote in a message to the Louisiana rapper. "I don’t recall you giving s**t. I took the blame for why we don’t do music because I was trying to keep your hater card clean. But nah we really don’t do music because he probably scared I’ll be bigger on some baby s**t." If The Main Bird and KnowCap are any indication, it looks like he'll continue to make his own mark.
