Marracash
Noi, loro, gli altri

I haven't read Houellebecq's novel Serotonin, but I've read (around) that it contains episodes of zoophilia. Sir, it seems to me that you won't be getting my money. Well, I'm sure Marracash has read it and found it shocking, as hard as a boulder forcibly lodged in the throat. Marracash must have been reading this kind of stuff since a couple of Milanese interviewers suggested parallels between his rap writing and the great postmodern masters – albeit, obviouslyyyy, with due proportions. Marra's life is probably more boring than we imagine.

Imagine being a rapper and being forced to raise the stakes every time. The concept of the previous album was based on Bergman's Persona and on Focus Junior in the dentist's waiting room. This new one finds itself obliged to philosophize about concepts of depersonalization and class conflicts that the SocietyWeLiveIn compels us to face; but not only that, because in one track, I don't remember which, Marra even quotes Mark Fisher, a critic/philosopher you can only know if you've become Facebook friends with those ten snobs in Italy who handle his dissemination. Clearly, the Cash has become a man, and opportunity makes the man inside joker.

I'm not quite sure if this will be his fortune or the beginning of his end, I just know that these lyrics bring me back to that Young Thug meme tinkering on the computer with an intensely focused grimace; and when he attempts to do real hip-hop, that is by recovering the art of sampling, Marra relies on Ridi, pagliaccio (discovered by watching clips of Aldo Giovanni and Giacomo) and Infinity by Guru Josh Project (which even your grandma knows), which for those who don't know, aren't exactly the cutting edge of pop culture. Marra, I understand that you've fed your mind and you're seeking a balance between 50 Cent and Gadda, but from your references, I can also tell that you haven't seen Julia Ducournau's first short and maybe you haven't realized it, but trust me, for your new pals, this could be a serious issue! I'm telling you, then it's up to you. Yo.
