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.

Und ich drive around, yeah
Luft ist raus, yeah, mach' das Handy aus, yeah, yeah, yeah
Und ich drive around, yeah
Loco's Sound, yeah, Moshpits in der Crowd, yeah, yeah, yeah
Und ich drive around

Und ich drive around

Luft ist raus, yeah
Bis um sechs, Sinne sind taub von all dem Dreck
Komm' nicht raus, hab' Devil im Bett
Hatte kein Netz und sie ist verletzt
So viel' ungelesene Chats
Herz ist rein, doch Seele befleckt
Noch ein Glas, bitte nimm es mir weg
Sheytan stark und ich trink' es auf ex, yeah, yeah
So viele Days nicht da, es tut mir leid, ja
So viele Days verlockt, es ist nicht einfach, yeah
Frage mich, wer von euch war vor dem Hype da? Yeah
Seele so tot, ich dacht', man stirbt nur ein mal

So viele Fehler, doch mach' es nochmal von vorn, yeah
Du kannst nicht verstehen, denn du weißt nicht, woher ich komm', yeah
So viele Drinks, hab' mein Gefühl verloren, yeah

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Luciano's song "Drive Around" convey a sense of introspection and disillusionment. The opening lines, "Und ich drive around, yeah" (And I drive around, yeah) sets the tone of the song, suggesting a restless state of mind. The repetition of phrases like "Luft ist raus" (air is out) and "Mach' das Handy aus" (turn off the phone) emphasizes a desire to disconnect from the outside world and escape.

The lyrics touch upon themes of solitude and self-reflection. The line "Bis um sechs, Sinne sind taub von all dem Dreck" (Until six, senses are numb from all the dirt) suggests a hedonistic lifestyle where the singer seeks temporary relief from the chaos and pressure of life. There is a sense of regret in the line "So viele Days nicht da, es tut mir leid, ja" (So many days not here, I'm sorry, yeah), implying a feeling of guilt for not being present or available for others due to his own personal struggles.

The lyrics also highlight a struggle with identity and staying true to oneself amidst fame and success. The line "Frage mich, wer von euch war vor dem Hype da?" (I wonder who among you was there before the hype?) speaks to the artist's reflection on those who have supported him genuinely versus those who are drawn to him only because of his popularity. The repeated phrase "So viele Fehler, doch mach' es nochmal von vorn" (So many mistakes, but do it all over again) suggests a willingness to learn from past errors and start anew.

Overall, "Drive Around" captures a complex mix of emotions, from loneliness and frustration to a determination to persevere and find a sense of purpose.
