 Almost all the productions are incredible, the tiny problem is who sings over them.

 Italian hip-hop: the beats are simply used to mark a rhythm on which to shoot uninterrupted streams of words that make listening cumbersome and boring.

Mace's album OBE showcases exceptional production with a lineup of Italy's top trap artists. Despite impressive beats, the vocal performances and lyrical content often feel repetitive and tiring. While some tracks like Blanco's and Salmo's stand out, many others fail to innovate, leading to an overall mixed experience. The album reflects broader challenges within Italian hip-hop today. Explore Mace's OBE to hear top Italian hip-hop productions and decide if the vocals match the beats for you.

 "A myriad of cultured citations, a chorus taken wholesale from the Jewish folk song 'Hava Nagila,' bold passages like 'back then, opium cost us less than a beer'..."

 "Sibilla sings live over the track, but they don’t play the track—instead, the piece with vocals included is played, creating an obscene mix and a total mishap."

Sibilla, an Italian singer of Zimbabwean origin, gained early recognition through film work and was mentored by Franco Battiato. Her 1983 Sanremo single "Oppio" combined electropop with bold drug references. However, a disastrous live playback incident caused her elimination and stalled her career. Despite EMI backing and subsequent releases, Sibilla never achieved lasting success and quietly vanished after a feature in 1990. Explore Sibilla's rare and fascinating story—listen to her unique voice and the enigmatic Oppio single now!
