Ernia: the setlist for the Milan concert. Three dates at Forum di Assago to close out the tour

After stops in Jesolo, Rome, Naples and Florence, Ernia arrives at Milan's Unipol Forum on Saturday 28, Sunday 29 and Monday 30 March for three highly anticipated shows. According to official ticketing sources, doors are set for 9pm.

The concert setlist

The setlist runs through the most representative moments of the rapper's recent output, particularly the tracks tied to the album “For soldi e per amore”. A useful reference point is the 22 March show at Rome's Palazzo dello Sport, which points to a well-established show structure: here, then, is the likely setlist for Ernia's Milan concert.

The Tour

The three-night Milan run marks the tour's closing chapter.

Over the years Ernia has cemented a central position within Italian rap, moving from “To Kill a Mockingbird” to his most recent work. Among his best-known collaborations are those with Sfera Ebbasta, Carl Brave, Tedua, Rkomi, Lazza, Madame, Pinguini Tattici Nucleari and Mara Sattei.

Biography

Milan-born in 1993, Matteo Professione was once nicknamed Ernia by a schoolmate, and, in a twist of irony and fate, that nickname went on to make him famous.

His stint with Troupe D’Elite, backed by Guè Pequeno's Tanta Roba and a much-maligned crew that also included Ghali, has kept him active since 2011. He took his first steps there with mixtapes and collaborations, in contact with his friend Tedua, Ghali and Sfera Ebbasta.

The EP “No Hooks” (2016) introduced him with trap tracks stripped of any chorus, but it's the eight-song “To Kill a Mockingbird” (2017) that revealed him as a far less superficial trapper than many of his peers, as the title track makes plain. His agile, laid-back flow, his often reflective delivery, and content driven by an uncommon gift for storytelling made him one of the most promising names of the era.

The real test comes with “68” (2018), finally a work with the scope of a full album. Drawing inspiration from the work of Kendrick Lamar, and in particular “DAMN.” (2017), it goes platinum and is reissued in an expanded edition. It lays the groundwork for the success of “Gemelli” (2020), which engages with the more rap-leaning strain of Italian pop, especially on the bittersweet six-times-platinum single “Superclassico”, a self-mocking anti-serenade that's deliciously catchy. Balancing out these hooks aimed at radio and the Spotify playlists of the very young are several more aggressive tracks.

The follow-up, “Io non ho paura” (2022), which explores the unease of imagining the future while living in the present, mixes introspective tracks with pop-rap and trap moments. He returns with “For soldi e per amore” (2025).
