Editor's note

Mr. Rain writes Italian hip-hop with a poetic touch

Mattia Balardi's songs blend rap rhythms with storytelling about everything from personal struggles to nuclear disasters.

For a quick sense of his range, try "Pianeti" from his top songs. Or the darker, featured track "Nemico Di Me Stesso" with Hopsin.

He caught Italy's ear with "Carillon" in 2015, a debut single that landed him a Warner deal. Then he brought a ballad about Chernobyl's aftermath, "Fiori Di Chernobyl," to the Sanremo Festival stage in 2019. That mix of pop hooks and heavier themes gives his catalog a specific, sometimes uneasy weight.

He started writing verses in Desenzano del Garda, drawn to hip-hop. After "Carillon" broke through, albums like "Butterfly Effect" and "Petrichor" followed, along with that Sanremo moment. More recent tracks include "I Grandi Non Piangono Mai" and a collaboration with Birdy called "Non C'è Più Musica."
