Schlein and rap with J-Ax: looking for a reliable ally after the wide field flop


Elly Schlein who does barre on stage with J-Ax it was not a collective hallucination of Italians, but what the entire country has seen bouncing on every device in recent days. Video after video of the secretary of the Democratic Party doing hip-hop moves and trying to rap with the doyen of Italian rappers to the embarrassment of Democratic Party voters. On October 7, the day on which the Hamas pogrom in Israel was commemorated, Schlein evidently had other commitments that could not be postponed which meant she missed the appointment in the synagogue in Rome, where Meloni regularly attended.

But to be in Milan, at the Mediolanum forum in Assago, the secretary of the Democratic Party has fortunately found a free hole in the agenda. “I have never sung in my life, I had just arrived from the Chamber and I couldn’t even rehearse: I threw myself“, was his explanation. On the other hand, everyone knows the congested traffic in Rome at rush hour and it is known that from the Chamber of Deputies one can reach the Assago forum in Milan sooner than the Jewish Ghetto of Rome.

And in any case, “colleagues” understand each other. A year ago Schlein was on stage at the Unità party in Castiglione del Lago strumming songs by Eric Clapton and the Cranberries on his guitar. And if, despite the results, many are wondering whether it wouldn’t be better for him to devote himself to music rather than politics, there is probably a reason. But without raising the indignant fingers of her supporters, she herself admitted that she was in fixed-term policy and that she is a “aspiring director“. She was also once an aspiring musical influencer, as evidenced by the listening groups organized on social media for the Sanremo festival.

Waiting to try being a director, now she’s aaspiring Prime Minister. Some would say that beyond the role of aspirant, if these are the conditions, it will be difficult for her to arrive, also because the followers she had chosen to attempt the climb have already gone out of their way, leaving her to run alone against the battleship of the majority.

And what if a fine political strategy was hidden behind the performance with the Milanese rapper? Maybe that “improvisation” on the Milan stage was just an attempt to understand if J-Ax could have been a most reliable ally of Matteo Renzi and Giuseppe Conte. And given what happened, he wouldn’t even be to blame.
