3 artists at Capitol that I believe will have a break out year is #1 Masego. His music has been topping itself more and more and his features are increasing as well. Also, he's probably in the top 10% talent-wise. 2nd would be Queen Naija, I believe so because she's been super consistent since she's dropped and she has a solid understanding of her brand as an artist. Just a matter of time and having that right song. #3 is Blue Bucks Clan, being from LA they've got the whole west coast behind them and heavy features/co-signs from Quavo already.
