In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I was around twelve, listening to trap beats on YouTube when I started freestyling over them in Neapolitan dialect just for fun. I realized that rapping in my native language over those modern beats felt incredibly natural
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Drake, Take Care Geolier, IL CORAGGIO DEI BAMBINI Pino Daniele, Nero A Metà (40° Anniversario) Pino Daniele's "Nero a Metà" taught me how to blend tradition with innovation. Geolier's showed me trap could carry deep Neapolitan soul. Drake's proved that vulnerability and street credibility could coexist perfectly in modern music.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Acqua 'e Mare” represents my artistic DNA it transforms personal pain into universal poetry using the sea as a metaphor for emotional cleansing. The way Neapolitan dialect flows over trap beats creates something entirely new yet deeply rooted in my heritage
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? The first time I performed L'Aria e Napule and saw an entire crowd singing back every word in dialect was incredible. In that moment, I realized I wasn't just making music I was preserving and evolving our cultural identity for a new generation.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I dream of performing at Maradona stadium while my mother watches from the front row. I also want to collaborate with international artists to bring the neomelodic trap sound to a global audience without losing its authentic Neapolitan soul.
