Giuseppe Cucé’s “21 grammi” Isn’t Just A Concept, It’s The Gravity Of Human Experience

It’s a bit of a downplay to call Giuseppe Cucé’s “21 grammi” an album. You know when an artist is serious about their work, and there are not enough words to unearth its depth and meaning? That’s exactly it. It’s the kind that doesn’t just stick but leaves you smirking, intrigued, changed, or even challenged.
