Articolo 31 was an Italian hip-hop duo from Milan, formed by J-Ax (Alessandro Aleotti) and DJ Jad (Luca Perrini). They helped popularize hip hop in Italy in the 1990s and achieved major commercial success with albums like Così com'è.

Members: Alessandro Aleotti (J-Ax) and Luca Perrini (DJ Jad). Their 1996 album Così com'è is reported in reviews to have sold over 600,000 copies. The group moved toward pop/crossover in later releases, which divided critics and fans.

DeBaser's reviews document Articolo 31's rise from Milanese suburbs to national fame and the split reaction to their later pop/crossover turn. Early albums like Strade di città and Così com'è are praised for pioneering Italian hip hop. Later releases draw criticism for perceived 'selling out'. Overall the coverage is affectionate but divided.

For:Fans of Italian hip-hop, 1990s music listeners, music critics and nostalgic listeners

 In 1996, J-Ax and DJ Jad, known as Articolo 31, released their third album, "Così com'è": vibrant, colorful, and delightful like a box of chocolates (P.S.: since this comment is practically found in all the reviews of this album, I thought it would be rude not to mention it here as well).
