Piotta (musician)

Piotta is an Italian hip hop musician. Piotta, which in Roman slang means "100 liras", became famous with his song "Supercafone" which describes the Coatto (suburban unpolite, politically incorrect peasant).

Piotta's single "La Mossa del giaguaro" hit #15 on the Italian charts in 2000. [Search for "piotta" performed at [http://www.italiancharts.com/search.asp?search=piotta&cat=s Italiancharts.com] database on August 19, 2008.]

Now considered a "veteran" of Italian hip hop, Piotta set up a record label, "La grande onda", with a focus on emerging Italian musicians. [Ferrari, Paolo.
