Sfera Ebbasta Concerts Setlist

Born in Milan, Italy, Gionata Boschetti, known by his stage name, Sfera Ebbasta, is a famous rapper known for his 2015 album "XDVR." Sfera Ebbasta was Italy's best-selling artist of the 2010s and holds the record for the most #1 songs in the country, with 24 hits. He grew up in Cinisello Balsamo, near Milan. His parents separated when he was two, and his father died when he was 13. He left school at 14.

Sfera Ebbasta started his music career by uploading videos on YouTube between 2010 and 2012, but didn't find success. During this time, he met producer Charlie Charles while trying to sneak into a Hip Hop TV concert in Milan. Together, they formed the collective Billion Headz Money Gang (BHMG). In 2013, Sfera Ebbasta released "Emergenza Mixtape Vol. 1."

In 2015, he debuted with his first studio album, "XDVR," initially available for free and later reissued by Roccia Music with additional tracks. The album boosted the popularity of trap music in Italy and received critical acclaim, though it faced criticism for depicting suburban life, crime, and drug use. In 2016, he released the video for "Blunt & Sprite" and collaborated with French rapper SCH on the track "Cartine Cartier."

One year later, the Italian rapper released his first solo studio album, "Sfera Ebbasta." The album featured singles which earned gold and platinum certifications, respectively. Moving away from the gangsta themes of his previous work, the album covered broader topics and was promoted on TV shows and radio programs.

Moving into 2018, Sfera Ebbasta announced his third studio album, "Rockstar," produced by Charlie Charles one more time. The album debuted at the top of the FIMI Album Ranking and dominated the Top Single chart in Italy.

His success led him to become the first Italian artist to enter Spotify's global top 100. That same year 2018, Sfera Ebbasta and Charlie Charles founded the record label Billion Headz Music Group. Later that year, Sfera Ebbasta released "Rockstar" as the Popstar Edition, featuring new tracks like "Popstar," "Uh Ah Hey," and "Happy Birthday."
