1) Luciano (real name Patrick Großmann; born January 28, 1994 in Bautzen) is a German rapper from Berlin.

The son of a Mozambican father and a German mother, Luciano grew up mostly in the Schöneberg district of Berlin. He is a member of the rap crew Loco Squad Gang.

In 2020, Luciano was one of the first high-reach German-language rappers to release music in the internationally successful UK Drill style.

2. Luciano (born Jepther McClymont on October 20, 1964) is a Jamaican Roots Reggae artist. He first begun recording in 1992 under his first name Luciana, with his debut single "Ebony & Ivory" on the Aquarius Record label and followed with his debut album 'Moving Up' for RAS records in 1993. Luciano is the seventh of nine children and was born to extremely spiritual and musical parents while growing up in Daveyton, a small district in the central parish of Manchester, Jamaica.

2) Luciano, born in 1978 in Chile and raised in Switzerland. Started DJing in 1993 and producing electronic music since 1997. In the mid-90's, he was promoting Sense Club and Encuentros con la Technocultura in Santiago de Chile in the company of many initiators of the Latin American electronic music scene: Señor Coconut AKA Atom Heart, Ricardo Villalobos, Pier Bucci, Dandy Jack, Adrian Schopf, Washington Miranda, Argenix Brito, Microman, etc.

Luciano left Chile at 21 and moved to Europe (2000), settling in Geneva (Switzerland) to launch Mental Groove Records and holding a residency at the Weetamix club. He gradually invaded the inner reaches of electronic culture, forming a partnership with Ibiza’s most notorious underground club, Circoloco at DC10, which gave Luciano a perfect platform and a passionate audience for his irresistible, mind-altering blend of barebones techno and hot-blooded Latin rhythms. His releases appear on the Transmat, Perlon, Lo-Fi Stereo, Bruchstuecke and Klang Elektronik record labels.

Luciano's mixed Swiss & Chilean identity shows in his music, a somewhat mystical blend of deep techno & electro that integrates southern elements in rhythms and colourful patterns in sound. His collaborations with Ricardo Villalobos (Playhouse, Perlon, Warp, Force Inc etc.) as Sense Club are especially rewarding, as is his partnership with Pier Bucci and Argenix Brito as Monne Automne.

Mellowing his style as times goes by, getting more experimental and spacey with a fresh style of his own, Luciano’s production is destined to the wiser dancefloors.

Später Abend, ich pack' hinten Packets ab
Sweet Carlito, weil ich Chaias wittern kann
Um meinen Hals will ich dicken Brillant

Berlin Favela
Flex an Negro, jetzt kommt Prada's elegant
Deal' vallah, Bruder, immer unerkannt

Flex, Flex, nicht mit dir
Para machen, nicht mir dir
Kämpfer, Hustler bis zum Ziel
Flex, Gang, loco Negro sind nicht so wie du
Khabas Therapie, mein Mobilphone
Über Grenzen, muss mein Dope reinholen
Kleiner Pisser, laber nicht dumm rum
Nur Verbrecher, guck, da, wo ich wohn'

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Luciano's song "Berlin Favela" convey a sense of pride and empowerment. The repeated phrase "Berlin Favela" emphasizes the fusion of two distinct cultures - the favela culture from Brazil and the urban environment of Berlin. This combination reflects the artist's own background as a German rapper with Brazilian heritage.

The lyrics highlight the hustle and ambition of the artist, as he describes himself as a "Flex an Negro" (flexible black man) who deals with situations discreetly and elegantly. He asserts his dominance and success in the music scene, declaring that "Locos" (crazies) are everywhere and he is taking over with sophistication and style. The reference to a "Universal Majordeal" suggests that he has made a significant breakthrough in his music career.

The lyrics also touch upon themes of loyalty, unity, and the hardships faced in marginalized communities. Luciano refers to his fellow artists as "Locomembers," emphasizing their unity and the shared struggle they endure. He talks about being a fighter and hustler who will not stop until he achieves his goals. The lines "Gang, Gang, nicht mit dir" (Gang, Gang, not with you) and "Flex, Flex, nicht mit dir" (Flex, Flex, not with you) imply that he is selective with his associates and only aligns himself with those who are equally determined and dedicated.

Overall, "Berlin Favela" represents Luciano's journey as an artist bridging two cultures, showcasing his ambition and asserting his place in the music industry while staying true to his roots.
