The production is covered mainly by his rapper and younger brother Nesli who produces 12 out of 17 tracks and the remainder are by Italian hip-hop producer Fish as well as Dj Nais. The album was certified platinum by the Federation of the Italian Music Industry.[1]

Tradimento is considered the album that opened the hip hop music to the great audience in Italy, giving to it mainstream popularity.[2]

Background

After his underground success with his second studio album Mr. Simpatia he signed a contract with Universal, a major label, and this was considered a betrayal by his older fans, so he decided to call the album Tradimento, which means betrayal. But even if he signed with a major label he decided to keep his hardcore style which attacks various political and social downsides.[3]
