Would you like to try something new?
A tour (by necessity not exhaustive) through the extraordinary Neapolitan musical heritage.
Int'o Rione
It seems completely natural to me that a great hip-hop scene has developed in Naples; but I stopped at Co'sang, which is stuff from more than ten years ago (and ten years in this field is a geological era), and this just shows how old I am...
I know that Luché and Antò continue as solo artists, and I know that something is moving in the city, but I’ve lost almost all my contacts and - therefore - I know little.
Every now and then, one of my students plays me some of their rhymes and asks for advice, and this shows how vital hip-hop culture is in all the peripheries of the world and how this is the music of those peripheries (and this should be understood by all the old-timers like me who dismiss that music with a shrug).
As far as I'm concerned, Co'Sang remains the best (let's forget about 99 posse!); but maybe someone can challenge me and name others.
I, here, confess my limits.
