Italian duo described in DeBaser as performers of syncopated music mixing rap, ska, reggae and tropical rhythms; noted for the single "Tell Me Why (Dimmi quando te ne vai)" and the album "Una storia fantastica."

Mentioned in a DeBaser review as a brief-season act with a hit single and an album; characterized by a mix of rap, ska, reggae, salsa and calypso influences and an ironic, proud female/ist stance.

A nostalgic, highly positive DeBaser review celebrates Lorimeri as an Italian duo that blended rap, ska, reggae and tropical rhythms. The review highlights the single "Tell Me Why (Dimmi quando te ne vai)" and the album "Una storia fantastica." The writer frames the group as a charming act brushed by fleeting success.

For:Listeners fond of 1990s Italian pop, ska/reggae blends, nostalgia seekers and DeBaser readers.

 Creators of a syncopated music, where rap or ska advances merged with reggae rhythms and salsa and calypso veins, accompanying it all with "major" tones that gave a touch of lightness to the ensemble, the Lorimeri were effective singers of simple sentiments, and of a certain female/ist and Italian pride: the already mentioned "Tell Me Why" (hit of that brief season), mocked both xenophilia and the average male, perhaps not too intelligent to understand, with a liberating chorus that began with "Sinceramente ti direi/ma te ne vai o no?", accompanied by offbeat choirs and a dynamic and persistent rhythm section that - years later - would be taken up by the Spice Girls and, generally, by all the Girl Power groups of the late nineties (but, perhaps, the Inspiration is more common than it seems, and still passes today through the Boot);
