Comunisti col Rolex is a collaborative studio album by Italian rappers J-Ax and Fedez. It was released on 24 January 2017 through Sony Music and Newtopia.[2][3]

Release

In an interview in 2016, Fedex and J-Ax revealed they had planned an album of 30 duets with a variety of successful artists, both Italian and international.[4]

The album was preceded by the singles "Vorrei ma non posto", which became a hit during the summer of 2016, and "Assenzio", released in November 2016. [2] On 21 November 2016, the duo revealed the title of the album,[5] and on 9 December the release date and tracklist, alongside the list of stars featuring on the album were announced.[6] "Piccole cose" was released as the album's third single on 20 January 2017,[7] while "Senza pagare", featuring T-Pain, was released as the album's fourth single on 20 May 2017.[8]

Title

According to the artists, the title Comunisti col Rolex originated from "an insult, which we wanted to turn into a merit: to say that in Italy you can still get rich honestly, and that is a beautiful thing."[9]

Promotion

The album was preceded by two singles, the first of which, "Vorrei ma non posto" was made available for digital download and promoted by a video released on YouTube the same day. The video was among the top 100 viewed videos worldwide at the end of the month of its release.[10][11]

The fourth single from the album, "Senza pagare", released 12 May 2017, which featured American rapper and producer T-Pain, was promoted with a videoclip filmed in Paris Hilton's house, which also became popular.[12]

On 27 October 2017 the previously unheard single "Sconosciuti da una vita" was released.[13] This single preceded the re-release of the album, which featured five unreleased songs and a live CD and DVD.[14]
