Il dj & produttore di musica elettronica nicaraguense-americano GORDO, dopo il successo dell’album “Diamante” e tra i 50 top dj al mondo nel 2024 per DJ Mag, estende i suoi orizzonti musicali costruendo un ponte tra l’house underground e il ricco patrimonio culturale dell’America Latina con il nuovo EP “ NO HAY VERANO SIN GORDOsu Ultra Records, che include le seguenti collaborazioni: Sfera Ebbasta (Italia); Bad Gyal (Spagna); MC GW (Brasile); Emilia (Argentina); Eladio Carrión (Porto Rico).

 

After “Diamante”, an album developed with hip-hop, dance and Latin giants such as Drake, T-Pain, Maluma and Feid, now GORDO wants to bring cultural impact with the new EP “No Hay Verano Sin Gordo,” a new wave that fuses electronic with Latin and rap worlds for which he involved the hottest artists from 5 different countries including Italy, already touched in 2023 with his official remix of Lazza’s “Cenere”.

For this global cultural impact project he invites rap star Sfera Ebbasta for “NO NO NO”, perfect for dancefloors and produced with Italian talent Draxx.
To further increase the project’s impact, “No Hay Verano Sin Gordo” showcases each artist’s cultural roots. Through music videos and content, the project will delve into the artists’ countries of origin, exploring their traditions, music and art to create a deeper connection with the audience, fostering a sense of cultural understanding and appreciation.
In fact, the official video for “No No No” was filmed in Cinisello Balsamo, to tell and share the places and roots of Sfera Ebbasta.

This new project marks a significant departure from Gordo’s previous work; here each track on the EP showcases the power of collaboration, with each artist contributing their own style and perspective to create an innovative sound.
Sfera Ebbasta – “I’m happy to be involved with Gordo on his single. It’s a global project that allows me to continue in this way to bring Italian rap outside of our country.”

From XVDR (2015) with trusted producer Charlie Charles to the albums “Sfera Ebbasta” (2016), “Rockstar” (2018), “Famoso” (2020) and “X2VR” (2023), the second chapter of the album that made him famous and the most listened to album ever on Spotify in Italy in the first 24 hours (surpassing his own record with “Famoso”), Gionata Boschetti is an undisputed sales recordman, the first Italian to enter the Top 100 Spotify Global chart and in 2020 the artist to have sold the most records in Italy in the decade 2010-2019, with more than 4.2 million copies between albums and digital singles.
