Biagio Antonacci is an Italian singer-songwriter active since the late 1980s, known for radio-friendly pop ballads and major hits like “Iris (Tra le tue poesie).” He rose to prominence in the 1990s with albums such as Liberatemi and Mi fai stare bene and has remained a staple of Italian pop.

Italian singer-songwriter born in 1963 in Milan, raised in Rozzano; active since 1989. Known for hits including “Iris (Tra le tue poesie)” and albums such as Liberatemi, Mi fai stare bene, Convivendo – Parte 1, Sapessi dire no. Has performed large stadium shows, including San Siro.

Four irreverent reviews tackle Antonacci’s pop persona: tender melodrama in Iris, bedroom-centric bravado in Vicky Love, and easygoing ballads in Convivendo. One review recalls a San Siro concert and another cites big chart numbers for Convivendo, Parte 1. Overall tone: sarcastic, occasionally appreciative, often eyebrow-raising.
