IURCICH (born 19 July 1989), known professionally as [it], is an Italian
rapper proficient in freestyle.[1]
** Career
Iurcich was born in Rome in 1989 to a Croatian father and an Egyptian mother.
He began his musical career in Rome in 2004, at the age of fourteen. During
his first year of artistry, he did not frequent the Roman hip hop scene and
created the first texts without confrontation, relying only on the little he
had been able to listen to occasionally. He got to know the hip hop
environment thanks to Phat Roma, an improvisation event that he attended on a
weekly basis. Here he had the opportunity to perform his first songs live, in
front of a critical audience, to try the first freestyle, accompanied by Andy,
with whom he would record his first song "Tufello talenti" and introducing
himself as Lirike Taglienti.[2]
Rancore's first album, entitled _Segui me_, was released in August 2006 and
achieved some success thanks also to the winnings that Rancore obtained in
freestyle battles, at the Underground Skillz 2006, in the continuous presence
at Jam sessions, at concerts in high schools and participation in the TRL
Hip-Hop Session organized by Piotta. "Tufello"'s music video from the album
is presented.[3]
In early 2010 he released the track "Lo spazzacamino", included in the album
_Hocus Pocus_ by DJ Myke. At the end of 2010, the Acoustic EP with DJ Myke
was released for free download, containing seven unreleased tracks (plus the
Squarta skit), while on April 15, 2011, Elettrico was released, an album
created together with DJ Myke. In October the mixtape Roccia Music II by
Marracash was released, in which there is the song L'albatro, made in duet
with Dargen D'Amico and Rancore himself. Towards the end of 2011 it is made
available for free download on the Nill Forum Exclusives, a collection
containing, in addition to various extras such as the complete discography and
biography, five traces of Grudge plus the ghost track The death of RINquore,
the true last trace of the Tarek's alter ego, or RINquore, which was thought
to be "dead" in 2008. Also at the end of 2011 he participated in the MTV Spit
Gala, anticipation of the program officially started in March 2012, which wins
on a tie with Clementino unlike the first season where he was beaten in the
semifinal by Ensi.<ref name="Biografia" />
In October 2012 he released a second album with DJ Myke entitled
_Silenzio_.[4][5][6]
He participated at the Sanremo Music Festival 2019 as an uncredited guest
during Daniele Silvestri's performances of "Argentovivo", and competed at the
Sanremo Music Festival 2020 as a contestant, with the song "Eden".[7] He also
won the Sergio Bardotti prize for best lyrics.[8][9]
