Ntò and Zinghero launch a new format: War Bars

From an idea by Ntò and Zinghero, a new format is born: WAR BARS, a rhyme-based meeting-clash that will see the first episode online on Thursday 21 November both on YouTube and in all digital channels.

War Bars is a project that compares two of the most iconic scenes of Italian rap: the Roman one and the Neapolitan one. In each episode, a rapper from Rome and one from Naples compete in a unique and original performance, exploring their style and their expressive strength on a shared beat but structured in two different rhythms, which will enhance the different attitudes and interpretations of the artists .

Opening this musical clash will be Ntò and Zinghero.

With War Bars, every meeting becomes a duel of verses and flows, in which the shared beat is the common background, while the changes in rhythm mark the passage from one city to another, from one voice to another.

The appointment will be monthly and after Ntò and Zinghero other artists will participate, always from Naples and Rome but coming from different contexts, demographics and realities.
