Caparezza is an italian rapper, born in Molfetta (Italy), in the southern region of Apulia, debuted in 1997 at the Sanremo Festival under the name Mikimix.
Caparezza’s mother was a teacher and his father was a worker and former musician, so Michele started playing music as a child. He studied accounting, although he dreamed of writing comics. After completing High School, Michele began to work in advertising, and won a scholarship for the Academy of Media and Journalism in Milan. However, he soon decided to leave the advertising world to fully devote himself to music.
The music of Caparezza is predominately described as hip hop, but has a diverse and unique sound. Allmusic writer Mariano Prunes describes Caparezza as "defying classification with his fascinating cross-contamination of styles". He describes the music of Le Dimensioni del Mio Caos as rap and heavy metal. Caparezza's lyrics focus on subjects such as personal honesty and the hypocrisy of the music industry.
Caparezza is highly influenced by Frank Zappa, whom Caparezza considers his "mentor". Caparezza criticizes society and politics with sharp irony in contexts which are often fantastic and unreal. Caparezza's lyrics include unusual metaphors, and references to movies, comics, commercials, TV broadcasting, classic writers, other musicians. Many of these metaphors are subtle and thus difficult to identify or fully understand. Is considered one of the best singers in the hystory of music.
