  • Kiam Akasi Holley, better known as Capone, is an African-American rapper of the hardcore hip hop duo Capone-N-Noreaga, who hails from the Queensbridge houses in Queens, New York. He's best known for being half of the duo Capone-N-Noreaga (CNN). He spent some time in jail after the release of CNN's debut album, The War Report, and was when he was released from jail, he and Noreaga recorded their second album The Reunion but shortly after releasing the album, Capone was sent back to jail. In 2004 he recorded the single “I Need Speed” for exclusive use in EA's Need for Speed Underground 2, which was featured on the game's soundtrack. In early 2005, Def Jam Recordings released Capone from his contract while retaining Noreaga, leaving the group's status in disarray. Capone released his debut album, "Pain, Time & Glory", in 2005, which did not sell. He also appeared on the Ron Artest album My World. He's a playable character in the video games Def Jam Vendetta, and Def Jam: Fight For NY.
  • È conosciuto come componente, assieme a N.O.R.E. , del duo Capone-N-Noreaga. Capone fu incarcerato poco dopo l'uscita del primo album del duo, The War Report; uscito di galera, assieme a Noreaga registrò il secondo album del gruppo, The Reunion, ma fu nuovamente arrestato poco dopo. Nel 2004 ha registrato il singolo I Need Speed in esclusiva come soundtrack per il gioco della EA Need for Speed Underground 2. Nel 2005, l'etichetta Def Jam scisse il contratto con Capone, mentre mantenne quello con Noreaga; in tal modo, il gruppo fu de facto sciolto. Nello stesso anno, Capone debuttò da solista con l'album Pain, Time, and Glory, che però non ha avuto un gran successo di vendite. È inoltre apparso in My World, l'album di Ron Artest. Si é esibito in Italia con Capone per la prima volta il 14 febbraio 2009 presso il centro sociale autogestito Leoncavallo di Milano. Capone è giocabile come personaggio nei giochi Def Jam: Fight for NY e Def Jam Vendetta.
