Nino D'Angelo

Musician

Italian singer-songwriter and actor from Naples, prominent in the neomelodic movement. Breakthrough commercial success with 'Nu Jeans e 'Na Maglietta; later turned to more reflective work (Tiempo, Terranera) and composed award-winning film soundtracks (including Tano da morire).

Birth name Gaetano D'Angelo; rose to fame in the 1980s as a neomelodic/pop star (notably 'Nu Jeans e 'Na Maglietta, cited as selling over a million copies). Worked as singer, actor and soundtrack composer; associated films mentioned in reviews include Tradimento and Giuramento; soundtrack for Tano da morire earned awards cited in reviews (Silver Ribbon, David di Donatello, Golden Globe). Performed internationally (review notes performance at the Olympia in Paris in 1986).

Two DeBaser reviews frame Nino D'Angelo as a neomelodic star from Naples who evolved from 1980s pop-star persona to a more reflective author. Critics note commercial highs (’Nu jeans e ’na maglietta) and later artistic growth (Terranera, Tiempo). Overall reception: appreciative with critical nuance.

For:Fans of Neapolitan music, Italian pop and soundtrack aficionados.

 Naples is a whore.

 Forget the boy with the blonde bob. That boy from Curva B, protagonist of those tear-jerker cinematic masterpieces, heirs of the Musicarelli, a reference point for the entire emerging neomelodic movement born in the shadow of Vesuvius and blessed by "His Majesty The Sceneggiata" Mario Merola, which was so successful in the popular neighborhoods of the entire South of Italy.
