in the fourth programme of this year’s summer series, Silvia Cesari gives an outline of the major authors of the Italian Rap of the 2000’s. A common tread in their songs is the authors’ experience of growing up in the suburbia, of going through difficult personal experiences, and feeling as if their life is losing meaning – in spite of the commercial success of their songs. We play: Fabri Fibra (Momenti no), Mondo Marcio (01-08-1997), Marracash (Bastavano le briciole), Fedez (Faccio brutto), and Emis Killa (Parole di ghiaccio).
