Luchè, pseudonym of Luca Imprudente, was born in Naples on 7 January 1981, under the sign of Capricorn. Raised in the Marianella neighbourhood, on the border with difficult areas of the city such as Scampia, Piscinola and Chiaiano, the Neapolitan rapper has experienced the harsh but identity-rich reality of the Neapolitan urban fabric since he was a boy. After participating in the 74th Sanremo Festival in 2024 as a guest, Luchè sings for the first time at the 76th Sanremo Festival in 2026 with the song “Labirinto”, marking a historic moment for an almost thirty-year career.

The beginnings with Co’Sang
Luchè’s musical career began in 1997, when he was still a student at a scientific high school. Together with his friend Ntò he founded Co’Sang, a group that initially also included Denè and Dayana, who left shortly after. The first song recorded by the group is entitled “Paura che passa” and is included in the self-produced album “Spaccanapoli” by the Neapolitan collective Clan Vesuvio.
The success of Co’Sang and the dissolution
In 2005, “Chi more pe’ mme” was released, Co’Sang’s debut album, largely produced by Luchè and composed of 16 tracks in Neapolitan dialect. The following year Universal began to deal with the distribution of the album, leading the duo to perform throughout Italy. In 2009 the second album “Vita bona” arrived. Co’Sang definitively disbanded on February 14, 2012, after years of great success which consecrated the duo as legends of Neapolitan rap.
Solo career
After the dissolution of Co’Sang, Luchè embarked on a solo career. On 19 June 2012 he released “L1”, his first independent album which contains collaborations with Club Dogo, Marracash and Emis Killa. He subsequently joined the Roccia Music collective, founded by Marracash. In 2014 “L2” was released, followed in 2016 by “Malammore”, which included guests such as Gué Pequeno and Baby K. In 2018 he released “Potere”, which definitively established him as a top player on the Italian scene.
The BFM Music label and the return of Co’Sang
In 2019 Luchè founded the independent record label BFM Music, signing talented rappers such as Geolier, MV Killa, CoCo, Vale Lambo and Lele Blade. In 2022 he released “Dove volano le aquile”, his first album with Columbia Records, which debuted at first place in the FIMI charts. In May 2024 the Co’Sang reunion was announced, with a concert on September 17th and the release of the third album “Dinastia” on August 30th. In 2025 he released his sixth solo album “My worst side”, preceded by the songs “Anno fantastic” and “Autostima”.
Labirinto: the lyrics of the song that leads to Sanremo
I don’t know how to get involved but I know how much a contract is worth
Nothing is forever in remorse, hatred drowns, we could have stayed in touch
And instead there is nothing, we are dust on the furniture inside an empty house
Pride is a bad vice and I’m the child who plays with it
Never been too high never fallen into drugs
The night is black asphalt I wait for the dawn to find me
A little light
Now that I can’t imagine you anymore
And I have no voice
Not even to shout that I know you’re leaving
Just to stay away from me
You’re better off away from me
We have no more excuses
How long does it take to forget
And what I know about you
It’s that you’re as beautiful as a lie
Said so as not to cry
Don’t cry
I will never sleep in your arms again
There are two of us in this labyrinth
And what I know about you
It hides a bit of me
Even if you then leave
Don’t forget about me
About me
About Us
About Us
Even if you then leave
Don’t forget about me
About me
About Us
About Us
The ego doesn’t count, the concepts count
Nobody understood that we compete with ourselves
Maybe the higher I climb the more I don’t see my flaws
When I don’t know who I am
They shout it at me at concerts
I’ve already had crises
Winter with overalls
The runs and the falls
Clashing with bare hands
While the others play
I stand out among the few who dare
And I will find
A little light
Now that I can’t imagine you anymore
And I have no voice
Not even to shout that I know you’re leaving
Just to stay away from me
You’re better off away from me
We have no more excuses
How long does it take to forget
And what I know about you
It’s that you’re as beautiful as a lie
Said so as not to cry
Don’t cry
I will never sleep in your arms again
There are two of us in this labyrinth
And what I know about you
It hides a bit of me
Even if you then leave
Don’t forget about me
About me
About Us
About Us
Even if you then leave
Don’t forget about me
About me
About Us
About Us
The keys to the exit
I put them in your hands
But in this labyrinth there are two of us
There are two of us
Even if you then leave
Don’t forget about me
About me
About Us
About Us
Even if you then leave
Don’t forget about me
About me
About Us
