Jovanotti
In Italy, Jovanotti is nothing short of a giant. The Rome-born singer-songwriter behind an endless stream of hits was already hailed in the late 1980s as one of the pioneers of Italian-language hip-hop. He soon took his warm, unifying, and boundlessly energetic sound abroad with Lorenzo 1994, the first in a series of albums coloured by world music influences. Pop, funk, ska, disco, timeless ballads – Lorenzo Cherubini moves effortlessly through every genre with charisma and confidence. For over thirty years he has dominated the charts, combining standout collaborations (such as with Rick Rubin), social commitment, and stadium-spanning tours. The stage is his natural habitat. Those lucky enough to see him at Montreux in 1999 will never forget it. He returns this year to present Il corpo umano, Vol. 1, the sixteenth album in a truly extraordinary career.
