Ape

The Profile

Ape is an Italian rapper from Milan known for the 2005 album Generazione Di Sconvolti, mixing warm vocals, narrative street themes, and literary references.

Italian, Milanese rapper. Released Generazione Di Sconvolti (2005). Themes include street stories, critiques of clerical hypocrisy, and Bukowski/Ellroy references. Collaborations and features noted on the album include Bassi, Federica (backing vocals), Asher Kuno, Sir Bod, Nobile Tino, and Tuno.

Ape’s 2005 album Generazione Di Sconvolti gets a mixed but curious nod. The reviewer praises the piano-driven Ne Parlerò Con Te, the story-driven Senza Rimpianti, and the bleak, strong Tundi. Strengths include warm vocals, solid beats, and Bukowskian references; weaknesses are a recurring focus on money and gangsta tropes. Overall: interesting themes, uneven consistency.
