Blanco and Mina, together for a chilling duet

Stsixty-two years separate them but something unites them. Blanco and Mina are preparing to become a couple for a duet which promises to be… creepy. The twenty-year-old graduate (furious) on the Sanremo stage and the ineffable diva of Italian music will in fact sing together. The song will find space in her new album of unreleased songs, arriving five years after Maeba (followed in 2019 by the project Mina Fossati). And it will anticipate his album, expected for April. In short, there is little left and the collaboration will see the light.

Blanco together with Mina for a duet

The sympathy of the Cremona tiger for Blanco, stage name of Riccardo Fabbriconi, was known: already last year Massimiliano Paniproducer, son and spokesman of Mina, had declared that the mother had liked the song Chills, with which Blanco had triumphed at the Sanremo festival in 2022 paired with Mahmood.

As for Blanco, who asked him a year ago if he would write for her, he replied. “Even the phone book I’d make them sing!” A reference to the legendary song written by Maurizio Costanzo If by phoning?. Maybe. In fact, Blanco believed in it, he dared and turned to Pani to propose a song. Mina liked the song so much that she agreed to record it and she also wanted Blanco at her side to sing it.

After the Sanremo madness, the ransom

Mina is not new to operations of this type. The list of duets recorded by the singer with artists that we could easily define as “alternative”, of another generation and another style, is very long. From Manuel Agnelli to Tiziano Ferro, from Max Casacci and Boosta of Subsonica to the Casino Royale. And then Piero Pelù, Mondo Marcio, Paolo Benvengù.

But for the singer from Brescia it can mark a real redemption, with which to archive his performance of Sanremo madness.

The song of Mina and Blanco born between Lugano and Milan

The song has no title and is being produced between Mina’s studio in Lugano, where the singer has lived for decades, and the Milanese studio of Michele (“Michelangelo”) Zocca, the producer of Blanco, born in 1994, from Cremona like Mina and co-author of the piece in question with the singer. What is certain is that the single will anticipate Blanco’s new album, anticipated by the single The island of roses, which should arrive on radio and platforms on April 14th. A few months later, his two scheduled performances at the Olimpico stadium in Rome on July 4th and at the San Siro stadium in Milan on the 20th of the same month.
