LIBERATO's soundtrack for the movie 'Ultras' The enigmatic Neapolitan rapper has released the full soundtrack of Lettieri's first motion picture
Last night, Neapolitan rapper LIBERATO released the full soundtrack of Ultras - the first feature film by Francesco Lettieri. The album, which was highly anticipated by the songs WE COME FROM NAPOLI and O CORE NUN TENE PADRONE, is a 14 tracks LP mixing instrumentals with unreleased singles: songs like VIEN’ ‘CCA (PART II), the third track featuring 3D by Massive Attack.
At last, FUNICULÌ FUNICULÀ is one of the most iconic popular songs of the Neapolitan tradition. It was written back in 1880 when the city inaugurated the funicular on the Vesuvio. Over the years, the song has been reinterpreted by many different artists and it became a real Italian and Neapolitan classic, one of the biggest symbols of the Parthenopean tradition. For example, in the film No grazie, il caffè mi rende nervoso (Lodovico Gasparini, 1982), the same expression Funiculì Funiculà served to name the mysterious character that tries to boycott the “Nuova Napoli” festival, screaming to the cry of “Napoli doesn't have to change!”
