Caleno composer and producer Pera has released his new official video, "RICOTTA," from his latest album, Ricotta Sessuale. The song, recorded in the province of Caserta, features Luffy, DNA, and PINCH, a well-known member of PMK.
Criticism of the music industry
The core of the song is an explicit criticism of the music industry and the rigid rules imposed by record labels, accused of favoring highly standardized productions. The project aims to challenge these conventions, trying to preserve authenticity and artistic originality.
International collaboration
Despite its local origins, the video has found acclaim beyond national borders, thanks to the important contribution of the filmmaker Dis Sensu from Strasbourg, who worked on the project in collaboration with Giancarlo Izzo. Dis Sensu's creative vision has allowed them to mix music and visual narration in a masterful way.
A symbolic message
The video includes Il Pastore, a short film that adds an evocative and symbolic element to the work, reinterpreted by Dis Sensu and Izzo themselves. The song's refrain, with the Neapolitan expression “Par c'at fatt a ricott'”, draws attention to the risk of losing one's artistic identity in the face of market pressures. This work demonstrates how even from the provinces innovative projects can emerge, capable of competing with the most established musical productions.

The song seems to have a strong message against the music industry. However, I don't know if the criticism is well received by everyone, especially those who work in labels. I would like to know more about how it was received.
I'm also curious to know what other artists think about this song and the criticism it makes. I think music should be free and not controlled by rigid rules.
