Background and singles

Vladislav Balovatsky (Capital Bra) started his career through Rap on Wednesday (Rap am Mittwoch), a German battle rap tournament. Following his win against Master Marv in February 2015, he departed from the tournament and started working on the album.[1] [2] In December, he released his first single, not included on the album "Bra", and announced the album. The album was announced in December of the same year, through the single "Bra macht die Uzi".[3] Three more singles have been released; including "Kuku Habibi", "Fluchtwagen glänzen" and "Kreide", all three alongside German rapper King Khalil.[4]
