Jovanotti, pseudonym of Lorenzo Cherubini (Rome, 27 September 1966), is an Italian singer-songwriter, rapper and disc jockey.It became famous in the late eighties, launched by Claudio Cecchetto. Jovanotti soon departs from the hip hop mix of the first hits, gradually approaching the model of world music (always interpreted in a hip hop and funky key). The musical evolution corresponds to a change in the texts of his songs, which, over the years, tends to touch more and more personal themes, more typical of the Italian songwriting style, returning to combine hip-hop, funky and songwriting in a style of its own. .At the same time, his social and political commitment is also increasing. Active pacifist, he has frequently collaborated with associations such as Emergency Amnesty International, Anti-vivisection League, Nigrizia and DATA, he contributed to the demonstrations in favor of debt cancellation in the nineties [6] and following the No excuses and Make Poverty History, participating in Live 8
