Biography
of Jovanotti
Lorenzo
Cherubini (born in 1966), better known by his stage name of Jovanotti,
made his debut at the age of twenty for Radio Deejay, under the aegis of
Claudio Cecchetto. The renowned "Il Grande Boh!" was not in fact
his debut as a writer as "Yo, brothers and sisters" had already
launched him into the literary world. But his real passion was music,
and this is where he has undergone his greatest personal and
professional growth. His albums, without considering a number of singles
associated with specific events (such as Cuore written to
commemorate the tragic death of Giovanni Falcone), are the milestones of
a complex musical journey that over the years has explored more and more
genres and influences. Jovanotti has intensified his tours and
collaborations and has performed with internationally renowned artists
(Pino Daniele, Luca Carboni, Luciano Pavarotti).
Over the last few years, Jovanotti has increased his political and
social involvement and this has led him to become, among other things,
one of the main promoters of the Campaign for the cancellation of the
public debt owed by Third World Countries: particularly in the
eyes of certain critics, this is a far cry from the young man who
in the late 1980s entertained hundreds of radio listeners for hours on
end emulating Robin Williams in "Good Morning Vietnam".
