Personal Life

Capra was born in the Bronx, New York City, New York to a Dominican father & Italian mother. Capra was raised in the Bronx and attended public school at PS71 until the 5th grade. He then attended Our Lady of the Assumption Catholic school right down the block from PS71. He currently lives in Los Angeles, California. His father was killed in 2003. He gave this message in honor of his father:

"I never knew my father and when I did, it was very briefly. He was incarcerated for most of my life and he was killed two years ago; he was shot."

"I think that even though my father wasn’t there, in his death and in his memory...he has been a mentor to me in my manhood because my mom couldn’t teach me how to be a man."

Capra has upwards of 18 tattoos, of which the most visible are dollar and cents signs at the corners of his eyes and a crown with the word "Familia" on the left side of his neck. His arm tattoos include a tribute to his late father (the name Capra inside a cross surrounded by the words "Fallen Angel"), the names of his younger siblings, symbols of the Muses Thalia and Melpomene, the words "Seize Cash" and the Christian phrase "The Good Must Suffer." His favorite tattoos are the ones of his family's names. His most recent tattoos are the words "Forsaken" and "Forgiven" on the back of his hands. Capra has stated publicly his interest in ESports and is also a longtime player of both World of Warcraft and StarCraft. He claims to be quite talented at both.

Famous quotes related to personal life:

    The dialectic between change and continuity is a painful but deeply instructive one, in personal life as in the life of a people. To ‘see the light’ too often has meant rejecting the treasures found in darkness.
    Adrienne Rich (b. 1929)
