YoungstaCPT Captures Wynberg’s Essence In “WILDBERG” Music Video. Fans of YoungstaCPT are invited back to the streets of his youth with the newly released music video for “WILDBERG,” a track from his recent mixtape Worldwide Wynberg.
Launched on 14 September 2026, the video was shot entirely in Wynberg, Cape Town, providing an authentic glimpse into the surroundings of YoungstaCPT, whose real name is Riyadh Roberts. With contributions from Crosby Bolani and production by New York’s Cartune Beatz, “WILDBERG” presents the neighborhood through the lens of a local.
The video avoids flashy sets or fabricated scenarios, opting instead for well-known streets, parks, yards, and local personalities. Interviews with individuals who have known YoungstaCPT since his youth enhance the narrative, as community members reflect on the boy who matured into one of Cape Town’s defining voices in hip-hop.
Many remember his initial freestyle battles in the park, while others highlight his impact on the community and his role in shining a light on a locale that often went unnoticed.
Musically, the track fuses Cape hip-hop and reggae influences, with Crosby Bolani adding a touch reminiscent of Junior Reid. YoungstaCPT uses the song to contemplate his upbringing, navigating between faith and the realities of street life.
He speaks of early ventures that helped fund his education and the enduring impacts of hardship, with the title “WILDBERG” possessing a deeper significance through its W-I-L-D-B-E-R-G acronym.
Cartune Beatz maintains a minimalist production style, emphasizing sparse drums and a profound soundscape that allows YoungstaCPT’s words to take center stage.
Worldwide Wynberg, released at the end of July, marks YoungstaCPT’s 36th project and his first full-length offering of 2026. The mixtape delves into Wynberg and nearby Wittebome, reflecting on his personal stories and presenting the area as both a sanctuary and a place of struggle.
Featuring artists like DJ Ready D, Nym Lo, and Omari Hardwick, the mixtape’s primary emphasis remains on the communities and experiences that have shaped YoungstaCPT’s journey.
The “WILDBERG” video upholds this narrative approach. The cinematography by MAES, also known as Dillon Lee, and the Y?GEN team keeps the camera focused on genuine interactions and recognizable faces, avoiding major celebrity appearances or extravagant production elements.
The outcome is a blend of a music video and a visual documentary of Wynberg, as YoungstaCPT intertwines his personal story with a broader representation of the environment that has influenced his identity and artistry.
“WILDBERG” is currently available on YoungstaCPT’s official YouTube channel.
