Career

Clementino started working as a rapper in 1996. He made a name for himself in the Italian hip-hop scene as a result by successfully taking part in freestyle competitions. With Napolimanicomio he released his first album in 2006, which he followed by a tour and a series of collaborations with other Italian rappers. The second album IENA was released in 2011. At the beginning of 2012, Clementino began a project with Fabri Fibra , which released an album and two singles under the name Rapstar . This was the first time Clementino entered the charts.

In early 2013, the rapper released another collab album , this time together with Dope One and beatmaker O 'Luwong. For his third solo album Mea culpa , released in the same year, Clementino worked (as in the Rapstar project ) with the major label Universal . The album now brought him into the charts solo, and the single 'O vient' was also a success. With the 2015 album Miracolo! Clementino finally achieved a number one success . At the end of the year he published the autobiographical book La profezia di Clementino .

The rapper participated in the 2016 Sanremo Festival , where he reached seventh place. He returned to Sanremo the following year .
