Comment: This is a fantastic compilation....all the best on one CD. This brings me back to the 1990s when Jovanotti's sound was as unique as the man himself. Fun, melodic, truly a great addition to world music CDs. Now get up and dance!

Comment: The rap which Jovanotti offers is a melodic alternative to the American version of the same musical style...

Summary: Jovanotti neophytes start here 2005-11-24
Comment: One of the amazon reviews claims the album is dated. I strongly disagree. 1990-1995 RACCOLTA is a compilation CD (obviously) that excludes the very dated and very juvenile (but often amusing) earlier efforts of this phenomenally popular Italian Hip Hop singer/songwriter. In the beginning, he appeared to be merely an (even goofier) Italian Beastie Boy(s, an obvious influence). Lorenzo Cherubini, better known as "Jovanotti", is a very positive, upbeat and somewhat hippie rapper with often intelligent and politically progressive lyrics set to catchy, often unique tunes. Check out his music video clips on his official website (I don't think amazon will let me put the address in here, so do a web search; ".it" is for Italian sites). As a recent music column in an Italian weekly stated, Jovanotti often upstages all other performers even when performing a ridiculous song. One could say his voice is "bel niente", i.e. certainly not pretty or strong in a purely physical sense, but I've grown to love it and have great affection for his positive life force and what I imagine to be a lively spiritual influence on Italian music fans. And to the same reviewer mentioned above: I bought this CD in '95 and have been enjoying it for 10 years now. Lorenzo is about 40 now (2006), but the music will appeal to much younger, and quite possibly much older fans.
N.B. You can download a 4-part (Italian-language) interview with Lorenzo Cherubini from MTV Storytellers, available FREE from the iTunes store.

Summary: Fun, but a little dated 2002-02-12
Comment: I wish I had found this CD ten years ago. I would have loved it then. Now, like fade haircuts and MC Hammer pants, it all seems out-of-date (ok, maybe it's not that bad). Worth a few listens, but I'm guessing that unless you're already a fan, it probably won't become a favorite CD.

Comment: Jovanotti's eclectic mix of rock, rap, and funky beats just gets you pumped up. There is not a single song on this album that I don't enjoy. They're all awesome, as is this great Italian rocker.
