## Quotes by Caparezza

    See also: Mental sagas
* At the beginning of my career I was terrified of becoming a one-shot singer, from one song and away. Instead I managed to distract people from my so-called hits, like Fuori dal Tunnel for example, which for me are just songs.
* Those who only rap about content are often lacking in flow, they cannot express themselves freely either in terms of metrics or rhymes because they have to give a complete meaning to what they say, and in doing so they risk losing a lot of opportunities to come up with funny and interesting metrics which however have the flaw of not being functional to the discussion.
* From the tunnel, from every tunnel, one comes out trying to think with one's own head, not to be standardized and to be able to build an individual vision of the world.
* There are definitely some rappers who don't like me. This is clear. Even some musicians don't look favorably on me. It's a normal thing, if it were just out of empathy. It's not like that, but I don't actually care. I have never been influenced by anyone, not even by the expectations of the fans, let alone by my colleagues. There is ostracism against me. The biggest truth is that I have no interest in the opinion of the rap scene. Who cares, I say. I'll get out of it. All music is compared to cultural phenomena, even smooth music is, but I refuse that there is a sectoral and inelastic way of seeing music.
* It is always good to distinguish the word from the example: I am not a paladin. I express what I feel and what I care to communicate with the hope that my critical sense on certain issues can serve to support those who try to improve this society.

* It's a journey inside my head. This is the most painful album of my career. It comes after seven albums and is the result of a feeling of anguish and amazement, the same one you feel when moving inside the interactive forest that we created. Entering a forest and not knowing where you are going is strange, it is possible to enjoy the most beautiful situations, but also the bad ones. I think that this journey, similar to a video game, can help the public understand the project: it's like when you order a wine at a restaurant, if someone explains it to you it immediately takes on more value. (Caparezza)
* EXUVIA, in short, is what remains of the body of some insects after having developed a formal change. A perfect cast, so precise in detail that it seems like a sculpture, a kind of transparent case that once housed the life and which now sits there, motionless, a simulacrum of a phase that has now been overcome. On the cover there is a symbol that represents the passage from a current condition (large circle) to a future one (small circle) through a series of spirals (symbol of death and rebirth in most cultures). My EXUVIA is therefore a personal rite of passage in 14 songs, the path of a fugitive who escapes from the imprisonment of times gone by to let himself be swallowed up by a forest in which to lose your tracks.<ref group="source">From a post on the official Instagram page, 31 March 2021.</ ref> (Caparezza)
* [...] I don't really care how Exuvia will be received. Really. However, it matters a lot to me that people perceive the commitment that went into doing it, the commitment that I put into it. Because if taste is subjective, and it is, other things are not. And I can tell you that I could talk to you for hours, really hours, about every single sentence contained in this record; I went back to the lyrics a thousand times before finding the definitive version. In short, I don't care if you like this album, but you have to recognize the commitment behind it. Yes, this is what I ask of you, I demand this a little. (Caparezza)
