Capital Bra is apparently being blackmailed. It is a preliminary investigation for predatory extortion to the detriment of the rapper, said the spokesman for the Attorney General Berlin. The authorities gave no information on the background.
Capital Bra, whose real name is Vladislav Balovatsky, had spoken on social media about being threatened. So he rapped in a clip published on Instagram Tuesday, among other things, "They said they want to fuck me if I do not pay."

According to a report in the "Bild" newspaper, the Miri and El Zein clan are behind the threats. They are said to have demanded from the 24-year-old at least 500,000 euros and a stake in future music revenues. According to the report, they justified the claims by saying that they helped Capital Bra when he broke with his old label. The rapper is said to have gone to the police himself, after he had first tried to clarify the conflict with the support of the Rammo clan without the authorities.
When Capital Bra left Bushido's EGJ label in January, he explained that Bushido had worked with the police. He could understand that Bushido had sought out police protection out of concern for his family - but he was against Bushido blackmailing people who would therefore go to jail.

Capital Bra is currently one of the most successful German hip-hop musicians, even the most successful artist in history, measured by the number 1 hits in Germany. Also his last album "CB6" was in Germany and Austria at the top of the charts.
