Vacca also known as Vaccaman, Mr. Vacca, Lil' Mocho or Devil The Rasta (born Alessandro Vacca on 21 October 1979) is an Italian rapper who lives in Kingston. [1]
Vacca was born in Cagliari but he grew up in Milan in the neighborhood of Quarto Oggiaro. The press coverage, mostly in Italian, [2] presents him as a "redeemed" person, who has fought against drug addiction, poverty, and degradation for the sake of his newly created family. From 2001 to 2003, Vacca played with a group called Azhilo Nitro. After this first experience he published the EP Mr. Cartoon, in 2003. Deeply influenced by Jamaican music, he combined rap and reggae in his solo debut album, titled VH, published in May 2004. His music shows evident musical influences of the Casabrasa, a collective of DJs with whom he performed live, featuring electronic instrumentals, and the voice in rap style is consequently brought to marry dancehall and reggae. In 2010 he moved to Kingston, Jamaica, where he lives with his partner, after the birth of his daughter Zuri.
