Night Skinny

Night Skinny, the stage name of Luca Pace, is an Italian record producer, sound engineer and rapper who has become one of the most respected beatmakers in the Italian hip-hop scene. He began his career under the alias Cee-Mass before adopting the Night Skinny moniker in 2010 with the album «Metropolis Stepson». His sound blends heavy, atmospheric trap and boom-bap production with a dark, cinematic quality that has made him a sought-after collaborator for the genre's leading voices.

A turning point came with his 2014 independent release «Zero Kills», featuring appearances from major names in Italian rap such as Marracash and Noyz Narcos, which cemented his reputation as both a producer and an artist in his own right. He followed this with «Pezzi» (2017) and «Mattoni» (2019), both of which extended his influence to a younger generation of Italian rappers who came up in the years that followed.

Beyond his solo albums, Night Skinny is known for behind-the-boards work that shaped the sound of numerous Italian rap records, giving him a rare dual identity as both performer and architect of other artists' hits. Tracks like «Street Advisor», «Stay Away» and «6 A.M.» showcase his ear for hooks that sit between rap, pop and R&B textures, while collaborative cuts such as «BTX Posse» highlight his role as a connector within the scene.
