YoungstaCPT Reflects On A Monumental 2024. YoungstaCPT has never been one to rest on his laurels. The Cape Town rapper took to social media to reflect on his whirlwind year, sharing a powerful reminder about the value of perseverance and consistent grind—especially when the spotlight dims.
In a candid post, YoungstaCPT wrote, “It’s important to keep working even when no one is looking.” A message that resonates with many independent artists navigating the complex music landscape, but for Youngsta, it’s personal. As an independent powerhouse representing Cape Town, he knows the journey isn’t always smooth—but the rewards speak volumes.
And 2024 was nothing short of a testament to that work ethic. “4 mixtapes, 10 videos & a few over the water trips for 2024 made it a good year for me,” he shared, giving fans a glimpse into the sheer volume of content and effort he’s poured into his craft this year. While the numbers are impressive on paper, it’s the underlying hustle that paints a fuller picture of his unwavering dedication.
What makes this reflection even more significant is his heartfelt acknowledgement of home. “Not to mention my city still supporting when I’m outside,” he added. Despite the growing international recognition and travels abroad, Youngsta remains deeply rooted in Cape Town’s streets—where his journey began and where the love continues.
“I’m grateful to be in this position as a CPT indie becoz I know it’s rare,” he concluded. His gratitude underscores the rarity of sustained success for independent artists, especially in an industry often skewed in favour of major labels and mainstream narratives.
From mixtapes to music videos, and to local love, YoungstaCPT proves that consistency and authenticity are still the ultimate currency. And as 2024 draws to a close, his words echo loudly for anyone chasing dreams in silence: keep working, even when no one’s watching.
