For years, rap has been the most practised musical style in the world. Now it is more than a genre: it is an image, and a production method that serves as a reference point for a considerable part of the music market. Among its thousand currents and styles, a few artists have distinguished themselves in what experts call “Lyrical rap”, relying on literary experiments and clever wordplay rather than the explicit street-style bluntness that plays an important part in the historical iconography of the genre. The new generation of local rappers will be led by Moder, other expert musicians and Rancore, a torch-bearer of Italian rap, to demonstrate their skills at visionary lyricism and their mastery of metrics, and to overcome prejudice with a view to a brighter future.
