1) Luciano (real name… Read Full Bio ↴There is more than one artist with this name:
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.

Hennessy Vitamin, yeah, yeah-yeah, eh
Leben wie Fantasie, yeah, yeah-yeah, eh
Doch eigentlich fühl' ich's mies, yeah
Nicht viel, tranquil
Geld bringt dich nicht ans Ziel, yeah, yeah-yeah, eh
Stress, Hass und Wut
Viel Gift in mein Blut, Loco, nimm noch einen Zug
Es ist nichts wie's war, Geld viel Spaß
Flex wie 'n Star, doch im inneren kahl
Guck, der Kreis ist heut klein
Denn der Hass und der Neid kommt aus eigenen Reihen
Herz, für die bleiben (mein Team)
Tagelang fühlen, doch der Dreck geht vorbei, ja
Und die Nacht lang Party, ja, ey
Herz tot, weil ich's zerreiß'
Leben zieht an mir vorbei
Kopf tot, fühl' mich allein
Wenn das Geld kommt, nimmt dir kein Schmerz, yeah
Nur Treter Chanel (ah-ah)
Nimmt dir keinen Schmerz (ah-ah)
Gib dir nur von Chanel
Hennessy Vitamin, yeah, yeah-yeah, eh
Leben wie Fantasie, yeah, yeah-yeah, eh
Doch eigentlich fühl' ich's mies, yeah
Nicht viel, tranquil
Geld bringt dich nicht ans Ziel, yeah, yeah-yeah, eh (i-yeah)
Ice on my neck (krr)
Back in the days und das Pack, yeah (Negro)
Rich und die Chick in mei'm Bett, ja (rich)
Kauf' noch ein Ticket nach Marbella (boh-boh)
Doch es war nicht leicht, ja (yeah)
Tagelang wach, Ta7aria in der Nacht (krr-pow)
Und es war nicht einfach
Bros kommen und gehen, nur die Hälfte ist noch da (boom-pah)
Bin im Film, wenn ich fahr' (yeah)
Durch die Nacht (krr)
Augen auf, doch ich bin nicht wach, Negro (boh-boh-boh)
Sipp', wieder langer Tag (flex)
Flow exotisch, weil sie es so mag (mwuah)
Wenn das Geld kommt, nimmt dir kein Schmerz (yeah)
Nur Treter Chanel (krr-pow)
Nimmt dir kein Schmerz (yeah)
Gibt dir nur von Chanel (rich, Negro)

The lyrics of Luciano's song "Hennessy Vitamin" touch on themes of illusion, dissatisfaction, and the inability of material wealth to bring true happiness and fulfillment. The song begins with the line "Negro, Hennessy Vitamin," which could be interpreted as referencing the artist's background and the use of alcohol as a temporary escape from reality.
Luciano then sings about living life as a fantasy but feeling miserable deep down. He emphasizes that money alone cannot lead to true contentment and success. The artist highlights the challenges that come with success, such as stress, hatred, and anger, which can pollute his thoughts and demeanor. He describes himself as broken inside, even though he may present a glamorous exterior and enjoy parties and fun moments. The circle around him has become smaller, as he experiences envy and resentment from within his own circle.
The chorus repeats the idea that money does not take away pain, using the analogy of Chanel shoes. He suggests that material possessions like luxury items cannot heal emotional wounds or provide genuine comfort. Luciano is critical of the superficiality of wealth and its inability to bring true satisfaction.
In the second verse, Luciano refers to success, with "ice on my neck" symbolizing luxury jewelry, and riches and women in his bed. He mentions buying a ticket to Marbella, a luxurious vacation destination, to escape his struggles. However, he acknowledges that his journey to success hasn't been easy. He has experienced sleepless nights and the fleeting loyalty of friends. He views himself as being in a movie-like state when driving at night, feeling numb to the world around him. He mentions sipping alcohol again, indicating a cycle of seeking temporary relief from the pressures of life.
The second chorus reinforces the earlier message that money and material possessions do not alleviate pain or provide true happiness. The reference to Chanel shoes is repeated, highlighting the superficiality of relying on material wealth for emotional well-being. Luciano ends the song by reminding listeners that money alone cannot bring them closer to their aspirations and goals.
Overall, "Hennessy Vitamin" explores the conflict between the illusion of a glamorous lifestyle and the reality of emotional dissatisfaction. The lyrics suggest that true happiness cannot be found in material possessions and that inner growth and fulfillment are essential to living a meaningful life.
