JoJo Pellegrino talks about legendary Music Career and Growing Up Italian 

disrespect me and catch a fresh slice and I aint talkin bout no pizza thats hot

Gave myself this haircut... nobody clippin' the boss...

My favorite Italian emcee - he set fire to Mixtapes when he did where I’m From better than Jay z and Bada bing on the mixtapes .. he’s got classic underground hip Hop Classics . Was also on grand theft auto radio on the video game . Legendary

I was really into the italian american rappers when I was a teenager and Jojo pellegrino, thank you for the music.

Aye the NY Legend JOJO P . . Real ones remember the GTA 3 Days

Shout out The shark from morris park 🇮🇹

I've been wondering when you were going to get JJP in the studio. Still listening to him. I've got his song with Nems on my gym playlist.

I’ve been listening to Jojo for a long time. Good to hear his story. I still rock his old stuff. When I was on a tv show Italian American show in Chicago I tried to get Jojo involved, but never happened. He did write I rhyme I remember were he said the line “they want me on reality tv but I can’t bring cameras where I be. Something like that. Crazy to hear is story similar to mine. Made it but had a messed up experience.

Genovese from yonkers was another dope italian american mc

Where I'm from is a classic Hip Hop joint. Regardless of anything. Just good ole Hip Hop music.

Keep it 💯 we need to adopt the view that if your grandparents are italian your italian no matter how mixed u may be, millions of italians out here unsure of there italianess And you can see jojo even got it a bit and hes a italian legend in the game

whatever happened to DON SCAVONE ????

Im glad he mentioned the shark a great dude and my brother .....-bianco

Growing up Italian I have a request for u can u bring skinny Joey merlino on the podcast ?

They need to get Vinnie Paz on here

He said "give this shit up and go make a pizza." Jojo is the truth. Long time coming to make his debut on GUI .. great episode

Jojo is the definition of never giving up

I forgot about him!! I used to listen to him!!

My grandma's maiden name is Pellegrino. Not too many with that same last name. My great grandparents came from Calabria and moved to California in 1922. They had a huge fruit and nut farm then moved to a bigger house with an amazing set of fig tree's. Seeing that last name brings back memories

Living legend. Keep making us Proud JoJo

Jojo is dumb Nice on the mic. As an emcee, he is one of the best

Drake didnt win that

SUNNYSIDE UP

Shout out The Shark from Morris Park, gold tinted glasses

yo Peace to Pellegrino! I grew up in the lyrics era and it was a dope time for music in general back then cuz people really held standards and calibers to their crafts. But to come across music like Pellegrinos u could hear the passion n love for the game wit displayed distinct authenticity in his subject matter n rhyme flow. I was outta Jerz letting people know this staten I dude got sharp shooters. the kay slay mixtape,bada bing n all them cuts, violator n rap city booth freestyles. all that shit fire! Even the closer to my dreams freestyle. I had the honor of meeting him while me n my homie were in woodbridge mall like 2001/02ish...Cool energy n appreciative of the support. Fast forward me and my brother doing a podcast Jerz Up Radio(hip hop show) like 2009ish.... we reached out n contacted Pelles camp n he hit us back n he really pulled up to the new brunswick new jerz location for the show. Murdered a freestyle,chopped it up like a hour, we aired his track "outta control" at the time n just kept it hip hop. Im happy for this dude tho n glad the homie stayed resilient thru this record industry. Keep shining ya light thru the lyrics dog n bless ya journey. Peace to this podcast for this one. 1

I met jjp once thru the kid Mike Costa. This guy really didn't give up on his dream and he's had a rough ride but he only is getting better. Peace big bro. If anyone on this island deserves to make it happen it's you. On some real sh1t. Peace ✌️ FISH
