Artist Suggestion - AUGUST 13th

International readers don’t let this recommendation tarnish my reputation, as I swear I’m not pawing this suggestion off as a “new artist”. For the domestic readers in the United States, Irene Grandi will indeed be a “new artist” as pathetic as that may be. It escapes me how Irene Grandi didn’t have the crossover appeal, possibly because (1) she didn’t want to, and (2) she rarely sang in English. Regardless if you speak Italian or not, Sto Peggiorando is a well written song with a catchy hook and a creative instrumentals. The track could have omitted the rap portion, but I suspect that was a poor attempt by the label to capture an urban cross over market. Nice try. Sto Peggiorando (translation: I’m getting worse) is a nice expansion for non-Italian music listeners into the unique sounds of European musical influences and music globalization. Enjoy.
