Cem Anhan (born 23 May 1991), known professionally as Capo or Capo Azzlack, is a German rapper of Turkish and Zaza-Kurdish descent. He is the younger brother of the rapper Haftbefehl.

Life and career

Anhan was born in Offenbach am Main, Germany. He grew up in a Turkish-speaking household, raised by a Turkish mother from Giresun and a Zaza–Kurdish father from the East Turkish province of Tunceli. Anhan's father committed suicide when he was nine years old. Anhan's older brother Aykut Anhan, known as Haftbefehl fled to Istanbul in 2006, because of an impending imprisonment.

Haftbefehl released his second studio album Kanackis in February 2012. Capo had a guest part on the song Party mit uns. Capo released his first single as a lead artist, "Hater / Erzähl' ma" on 19 August 2013. His first studio album, Hallo Monaco was released on 4 October 2013 and debuted on number 21 of the German album charts. He went into a hiatus following his album release. In April 2017, he announced his second studio album, Alles auf Rot, which was released on 7 July 2017. The album reached the top 10 in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.
