WHAT IS BEHIND MANESKIN'S AMAZING PLANETARY SUCCESS
Bad singers, no rebellion or disobedience to the system, but rather perfectly embody the fluid ideology to which everyone must bow

Massimo Gramellini in Corriere della Sera (29/10) defines Maneskin's lightning-fast worldwide success as a "happy mystery".
There are in fact dozens of Italian singers who have written and sung beautiful pieces, which remain in everyone's memory. But even Vasco Rossi, Gramellini recalls, "has always struggled to be listened to beyond Chiasso".
Then come the Maneskin, whose artistic production is not even comparable, in quality and quantity, to the repertoire of many of our authors, and suddenly they become international stars: they have even been chosen to open the Rolling Stones concert in Las Vegas.
"So what do they have that is so special?". To this question no one can answer that this happens for their songs. Besides, they have just arrived. So how did this worldwide success come about?
Gramellini himself provides an answer: "To use a fashionable word, they are fluid. Damiano, the singer, is a male who wears makeup without losing virility. Victoria, the bassist, is a woman who plays tough without losing her femininity. four appear elusive, clear yet fuzzy, not fitting into a definition ".
