For as long as he can remember the every day environment produced sounds that created music. He started going around tracking the acoustic expression of the city with a microphone. And then going back home on his machines to work those sounds until they translated emotions of the past in a musical and technological universe.

In 2005, he produces trip-hop under the name of Nu.b. Lately back to his techno to deep techno sources, he releases in May 2008 the album Wudilikebro.

Nu.b Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
She used to call my apple phone
I can't call her back she gone
Now I'm twisting pack alone
Yea I miss my Apollonia
We was riding fast
Road tripping on the high way
Listening to Sade
But I won't see you Monday
Had to say goodbye though
Leave it on a high note
Cheefin on the hydro
Yea I know my eyes low
Look me In my eyes though
I don't got no side hoe
I'll be your side oh I miss my Apollonia
I miss my Apollonia
I ain't mean to hurt you
I know what u worth boo
Now my rain is purple
I hope you know these words true
I'm runnin round in circles
Grinding all the time but i was tryna make it work too
I miss my Apollonia

Line by Line Meaning
Baby love me, non tengo soldi
My lover loves me, even though I have no money
Solo panni in casa sporchi
Our home is messy, with only dirty clothes
Dormiamo stretti e mezzi storti
We sleep closely, but in uncomfortable positions
Lo facciamo e poi ti scordi
We make love, but then you forget about it
Degli sbatti, del lavoro
We struggle with work and effort
E tutto il resto, sono solo fatti nostri
All of our troubles and issues are nobody's business but ours
Se mi sbatto e ci lavoro
If I work hard, we can succeed together
Uh sì, non conta il vestito che usi
It doesn't matter what you wear
Quando sei nuda che fumi
You're beautiful when you're naked and smoking
Sembri un dipinto di quelli che studiavi all'uni
You look like a painting that you studied in college
Uh shit, lui che ti scrive lo prenderei a pugni
I want to punch the guy who writes to you
Ma non posso sporcarmi le mani
But I can't risk getting in trouble
O perdere affari per 'ste mezze pussy
I can't lose business over these half-hearted girls
Segui la mia danza
Follow my rhythm
Kanye e Kardashian
Like Kanye and Kardashian
Devo scrivere ancora, sì
I still have to write some more
Perché il cuore non parla
Because my heart needs to speak
Polizia, polizia
Police, police
Non fermare il bandolero pazzo
Don't stop the crazy bandit
Sono dentro, questo qua è il mio viaggio
I'm in this, and this is my journey
Prego Cristo se qua non li faccio
I need God's help if I can't succeed here
Baby lei mi ama
My lover loves me
Spera che ritornerò a casa
Hoping that I return home
Con i soldi come dentro una banca
With money, like in a bank
Col profumo sulla pelle dorata
With the scent of golden skin
Spero che non faccia la puttana
I hope she doesn't act like a prostitute
(Uh yeah, uh yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Spero che non faccia la puttana)
(I hope she doesn't act like a prostitute)
(Uh yeah, uh yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Spero che non faccia la puttana)
(I hope she doesn't act like a prostitute)
Non farti distrarre da quello che senti là fuori
Don't let outside rumors distract you
E servirá vino dentro al tuo bicchiere per sciogliere al cuore quei nodi
Wine will be poured in your glass to loosen the knots in your heart
Ho cambiato la zona ma sono lo stesso, se passi da casa mi trovi
I may have changed my location, but I'm still the same, you can find me at home
E se sei lontana, ti sentirai sola, ti resta che chiudere gli occhi
And if you're far away, you'll feel lonely, all you can do is close your eyes
La mia voce farà bene a chi non sa lottare ma vorrebbe farlo
My voice can inspire those who don't know how to fight, but want to
Corri, corri, fratellino, noi tra i casini ci facciamo gli slalom
Run, run, little brother, we dodge through the chaos
Ci siamo persi di vista, ti dico qualcosa, se torno ti chiamo
We lost sight of each other, but I'll call you if I come back
Volevo passare ma siamo di fretta, è da un pezzo che siamo in ritardo
I wanted to stop by, but we're in a hurry, we're late
Milano la notte la sento calda
I feel the heat of Milan at night
Per strada l'odore di mariujuana
The scent of marijuana on the streets
Ancora vive chi non dorme sogna
There are still those who dream while not sleeping
E pure questa volta sono solo
And this time, I'm alone
Ti aspettavo tipo dalle nove
I've been waiting for you since around nine
Chissà cos'è che tu racconti alle tue amiche di me
I wonder what you tell your friends about me
Di quando siamo in giro in macchina, poi sopra di me
About when we drove around, then got intimate
Lei vuole me perché non sono gli altri
You want me because I'm not like the others
Sì, ti apro il cuore ma non farò danni
Yes, I'll open up to you, but I won't cause any harm
(Uh yeah, uh yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Spero che non faccia la puttana)
(I hope she doesn't act like a prostitute)
(Uh yeah, uh yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Spero che non faccia la puttana)
(I hope she doesn't act like a prostitute)
(Uh yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah)
(Spero che non faccia la puttana)
(I hope she doesn't act like a prostitute)
(Puttana, puttana)
(Prostitute, prostitute)
