SONG MEANING

Fasten your seatbelts – Nitro is about to take you on a roller-coaster ride through the mind of an artist who already feels ‘artistically deceased.’ In Storia Di Un Defunto Artista (Story of a Deceased Artist) the Indian rapper turns his verses into a confessional diary, spitting raw frustration about broken dreams, toxic ego, and the ruthless music scene that both lifts him up and throws stones when he gets too high. He confesses that music is his only faithful muse, while love, critics, and his own city feel like enemies. The repeated cry “Stay away from me” is not just a warning to haters – it is a plea for space to heal his glass-fragile heart.

The song flips between vulnerability and bravado, showing that success can be a double-edged mic. Nitro admits he hates half of his city and could “kill” the other half, yet he also loathes his own songs, proving that self-doubt never sleeps. He pokes fun at wannabe superstars, social-media invitations, and shiny commercialism, reminding us that real artistry often grows out of sleepless nights and uncompromising honesty. In short, this track is a cathartic scream against mediocrity, a love letter to pure hip-hop, and a stark reminder that even the loudest performers can feel tragically alone behind the spotlight.
