DARGEN D'AMICO
Playing with words helps one not to think in an ordinary way, and thus to think better. This is what one would say in front of the title of the new album by Dargen D'Amico, a man who with charades and sophisticated linguistic constructions has built a unique and fascinating style, among the most personal on the Italian rap scene. "Living helps not to die' is in fact the title of the record: his new and fifth album. The last had been 'Instant Nostalgia"2012', a vinyl with two monumental tracks/streams of consciousness of 20 minutes each; words turned into vertigo, profound visions that earned Italian rap the promotion to mature genre. But D'Amico is always at ease, whether in his more experimental moments or his more pop pages. Beloved for this as much by the fundamentalists of Italian hip-hop, who for some time have enjoyed him as the scene's best kept secret, almost worshipping him, as by unsuspected fans such as Sabina Guzzanti and Morgan. Dargen D'Amico is always himself because his is a popular way of expressing himself, he speaks his own language, a little crazy and unstructured but strong and clear becausehe pronounces it with the heart of simple people, and for this reason he reaches the hearts of others, be they teenagers or intellectuals and music lovers, who saw in him the future of song and the Italian language. E "Living helps not to die" best explains this balancing act. If it is apparently the most pop and manifest Dargen we have heard so far, a closer look reveals the existential chiaroscuros that have always characterised his poetics. Even the collaborations on the record - so many and so different - are played within a creative generosity that is far from the cold logic of featuring for its own sake that too often characterises rap records. And so here we go from the touching Keep running with Andrea Nardinocchi (a talented up-and-coming pop star discovered and introduced to the general public by Dargen), which tackles the theme of violence against women in a non-rhetorical manner, to the pure spaghetti-disco of Love my way with J-Ax (who was the first, in his freestyle days, to notice Dargen's talent, even before he debuted with Sacre Scuole), from the songwriting mood of With you with the Perturbation to a hilariously unhinged rap jam as Bocciofili with the new star of the rankings Fedezthrough the Max Pezzali by Two like us (who returns the favour of D'Amico's contribution to the new version of They Killed Spider-Man), the robust melodic lunges of Andrea Volonté (Calafuria Brothers) in We are all the sametwo long-standing collaborators such as the Two Fingerz ne The Cubethe scintillating UK-flavoured duet with Michelle Lily, Without youand the epic finale of It is alreadywhere Dargen looks the future straight in the face by duetting with Enrico Ruggeri who, for the first time ever, teams up with a rapper. Dargen handles each collaboration with naturalness and lightness, as if it were a colourful dance, and moments like the introductory VV photograph him at his most virtuosic and innovative. Songs? Word games? Pop? Rap? Underground? Mainstream? To say he is Dargen D'Amico is enough to describe the genre.
DARGEN D'AMICO is the intelligent answer to the stupid question of rap in Italy.
ANDREA NARDINOCCHI
Less than a year has passed since "descent into the field"by Andrea Nardinocchi, who just a year ago posted the video of his debut single on youtube "A Place for Me" (http://youtu.be/kTmi_sUwvKs), a song that in just a few months made him known to the public, industry insiders and critics, earning him the label of 'new face of Italian music".
As 2012 closes with an exclusive live set for the Italian debut of Vevo (http://vevo.ly/TNR0sQ), 2013 opens with participation in the 63rd Sanremo Festival where he presents his second single "Impossible Story" (http://vevo.ly/Z5vUgz), which adds another medal to this young man's chest. The months follow one another between promotion and live activity: Andrea was chosen, for example, to open the Milan concert of the acclaimed multimedia artist Woodkid, he duetted with Giuliano Sangiorgi for the Generazione XL festival and signed the remix of Max Gazzè's new single 'Your bloody commitments".
"A place for me", "Impossible Story"and 'Lost Together are part of the debut album 'THE PERFECT MOMENT', published by Giada Mesi on the Capitol label last February, which contains nine more unreleased songs signed by Andrea himself (lyrics and music): "The Perfect Moment", "Chapped Lips", "I Don't Let Go", "Need You" (http://vevo.ly/VyEfS6), "With a Glance", "Loving Someone", "How Are You". In addition to Danti from Two Fingerz in the track '.The Walls" (http://youtu.be/TkBRvztPrXQ), the record features one of the leading exponents of the Italian hip hop world, Marracash with whom Nardinocchi duets in "You Are Crazy".
