Amo'

"Amo'" is the new single from ZETAS, a female rap duo hailing from Salerno, Southern Italy. Both young millennials, rappers Annarella and Miriade were exposed to Salerno's underground hip-hop scene from an early age, jamming, freestyling and listening to different music than their peers. Active as a duo since 2019, they're now making their official debut with this track, produced by veteran beatmaker Tonico 70 and released by DJ's Choice, a partner label of Four Flies Records.

"Amo'" (which translates as "luv") makes their intentions clear: ZETAS rap in the exuberant dialect and slang of their native city, while their sound looks back to the '90s through a contemporary lens. Raw rhymes are delivered with an urgent flow over a beat that, rather than boom-bap nostalgia, is a modern take on classic production styles. The result is a happy medium between old school and fresh, one where the melody of dialect rap and rhymes blends wonderfully with the rhythms of funk, soul and R'N'B.

Out on all digital platforms on 26 May 2023.

"Amo'" will be released also as part of a two-track7'' single due out on 7 July 2023.
