Biography

[edit]

Born in Racale, a small village in the lower Salento, but moved to Bologna at a young age, DrefGold began to be passionate about American hip hop music at an early age, starting to write his first songs during his adolescence. In 2013 he joined BoomBap Haze collective, while two years later he opened concerts for rapper Jack the Smoker. In 2016 he released his first mixtape, Kanaglia.[1]

In 2018 he collaborated with Capo Plaza and Sfera Ebbasta in the song "Tesla", contained in 20 by Capo Plaza, and with only Sfera Ebbasta in "Sciroppo", contained in Rockstar. After signing a record deal with Billion Headz Music Group,[2] on 6 July 2018 he released his debut album Kanaglia, which debuted at second position in the Classifica FIMI Album;[3] four singles were extracted from it, one of which was certified platinum ("Boss") and two gold ("Kanaglia" and "Occupato"). In the same year he collaborated with rapper Side Baby on the single "Nuvola".

On 23 August 2019 he was arrested in Bologna for illegal possession of 100 grams of hashish for the purpose of dealing, and for the possession of 12,000 euros in cash.[4] During the year he continued his musical activity, releasing the title "Drip" and participating in the single "Glock" by Dark Polo Gang. The collaboration with the trio was renewed the following year with the song "Biberon", contained in the mixtape Dark Boys Club.

2020 also marked the release of DrefGold's second studio album, Elo, on May 22. The single "Snitch e impicci", in collaboration with FSK Satellite, was extracted from it, and debuted in sixth place on the charts,[5] It was followed by "223",[6] and "Elegante", recorded together with Sfera Ebbasta.[7] In 2024 he released his third album called Goblin, featuring artists such as Capo Plaza, Pyrex, Tony Boy, Tony Effe, Tedua and Bresh.
