Describe your musical journey in three sentences.

resilient powerful dynamic

Share an interesting experience you had while creating your latest track.

Assassina was born in May 2025 during my stay in New York. I had contacted El Gant, an underground rapper from Brooklyn, and we had agreed to do a studio session during my two weeks in New York. A day or two before meeting, El Gant messaged me saying that Ras Kass, a rapper from Los Angeles, was also in New York and had expressed his intention to show up for the session. So we met in the studio of rapper, producer, and mix engineer Jake Palumbo, in the Brooklyn area. During the session with Jake and El Gant, I opened a couple of folders of beats that two of my friends and artists from Milan had sent me: Weirdo and Jack the Smoker. At a certain point, during the beat selection, Ras Kass arrived with Louie Rubio, a Mexican singer and musician, his close collaborator. Naturally, I was really excited about the interaction with all these artists, and after choosing Jack’s beat, we got to work and, in a couple of hours, we had finished the track.
