Scusa, non ti ho contattato appena sbarcato
ma guardavano con diffidenza o indifferenza
eppure, non ho un numero tatuato
e la storia o si insegna o è indigesta.
E se parlo, parlo poco spoken word
in questo spoken world
plastica il giovedì umanità il venerdì
tutti indifferenziati al fine settimana
in fila indiana per un drink
o per la costa siciliana,
dove lei mi disse “non sei male per essere umano,
non sei male per un essere umano,
chissà che direbbero in paese se ti tenessi per mano
mi vedrebbero apostata quale fu un tale Giuliano”
Poi parliamo; apostolico romano?
Cambia poco a me che rinnego Ismaele e le stirpi d’Abramo
da quando la vita è gazza, ruba l’anima a Gaza
e mamma si consola con il preghiamo.
Battesimo di fuoco, battesimo di fede,
mio trasloco in mare ho visto l’unzione del tuo prete;
che nega a mio figlio se amasse Antino,
ma lo elogia capo chino se si piega al ministro laico con l’inchino.
Io che in lei ho trovato l’archè di Talete e il piacere di essere amato come uomo,
ameno loco è la mia domus al rifugio da anime inquiete
naufraghe sulle sponde del Lete,
Così in questa immensità si annega il pensier mio,
e il naufragar m’è dolce in questo mare.
Mare che accoglie l’anima mia per non annegar la mia identità sull’orlo di un naufragio
Mare che accoglie l’anima mia per non annegar la tua identità sull’orlo di un naufragio
Rigo, real name Mattia Righi, is an Italian rapper born in Cesena, Emilia Romagna. Growing up immersed in the local hip-hop scene, Rigo began writing lyrics and participating in jam sessions at a young age. His encounter with producer Telle introduced him to the world of sampling and rap culture, profoundly influencing his music. During his university years, Rigo developed a hybrid approach to hip-hop, incorporating elements of Italian songwriting and literary tradition. His writing became more narrative, with an essential structure that focused on the word and its profound meaning. Influenced by artists like Giorgio Gaber and Sandro Luporini, Rigo composed music for various theatrical productions starting in 2017. In 2020, he began releasing singles and EPs regularly, including his debut album "Esco, vago, torno". In 2025, he ventured into storytelling with the short story "Balera", included in the collection "I segreti dell'Emilia-Romagna". Rigo writes with a minimalist approach, preferring to show rather than tell. His music reflects a search for order in chaos, an attempt to shape the world through words and sound.
