Another shining star in the Italian rap scene, Gasoldo, comes back with his new single “Sunshine”. The Milan-based artist – whose real name is Leopoldo Ulivieri – has been steadily operating in the fringes of hip hop and adjacent genres for two decades. “Sunshine” presents Gasoldo at his best developing yet again a new chapter of electro-infused rap music. Starting with bouncing drums and synths pops, it quickly transitions to Gasoldo’s hooking vocals on top of bright and chorused refrains.
And underneath, his technical flows direct the passionate bar stanzas. Living in a delicate and graceful way, Gasoldo composes nimble rhymes in his mother tongue and paints vivid pictures with great expressiveness. Threaded through the tracks, synth stabs fill the mix with bursts of brightly colored notes, adding depth to the sound created by Gasoldo. Thus, as the arrangement gradually rises to a jubilant crescendo, Gasoldo allows for the full range of his lyrics to be unleashed. His fervent passion and engaging performance have matured over two decades on the frontline, sharpening his narrative skills to a fine edge. As the reasons behind his continued legendary status on the Italian scene clearly indicate.
Such is the case with “Sunshine,” a single that strengthens Tempiinversi’s place in Europe’s avant-garde for the second time with Gasoldo . Since the start of his career in the underground industrial scene, Gasoldo has never ceased to challenge the stylistic boundaries; each time he changes his alter ego, he gains new enthusiasts. A wordsmith who possesses his own unique aura, Sunshine continues another new chapter in one of the most interesting hip hop careers from the continent. Since he skillfully integrates rap, pop, and electronics with orchestral and film elements, Gasoldo truly deserves the title of both a unique Italian artist and a world pioneer. There is so much more of this sort of boundary dissolving to come from this unique artist and fans.
