(2012), always born from the collaboration of the two artists. The disc contains songs recorded together with various rappers such as Gué Pequeno, Clementino and Jay Reaper (member of the Dutch hip hop group Dope D.O.D).[2]

Promotion

Kepler was anticipated by the release of the single Non se ne parla, released on 2 April 2014 for digital download only[3] and accompanied by the relative video clip two days later.[4]

This was followed by the publication of the video clip of the song Haterproof 2 (sequel of Haterproof), released on 13 May,[5] and the second single Instagrammo, which entered radio rotation starting 30 May.[6] The relative video clip was instead released on 2 July.[7]

Issues

During the registration of the album, Gemitaiz was arrested for drug dealing and illegal possession of marijuana, ketamine and hashish on January 29, 2014.[8][9][10] After the court hearing on February 11,[11] the rapper was placed under house arrest for 1 year and ten months in his mother's house,[12][13][14] but he soonely got out thanks to the hashtag #freegemitaiz,[15] that thousands of fans tweeted out on the Twitter platform.[16]
