Ghali da Fazio does what he is forbidden to do in Rai

We are so afraid of words that it was enough to say “Stop the genocide” live on Rai1 to unleash Ghali a storm of hatred and distrust the likes of which had not been seen for some time, even if Ghali had invited the public to take up their rifles and start a civil war. For those three simple words spoken during the final evening of the Sanremo Festival a chaos began which led the Israeli ambassador and several right-wing political exponents to distance themselves from what Ghali said, even proposing the establishment of a Daspo that in the future it should commit to prohibiting artists from using Sanremo to send messages of any social and political nature – even if the one on the genocide seemed more like a message of peace, far from any color and any jacket. What remains is that, after the controversies and attempts at censorship, Ghali saw fit to tell his story in a program in which he knew he would find acceptance, that is What's the weather like.

Fabio Fazio's information container, which found new life on the Nove after the controversial farewell with Rai, in fact proved to be the ideal framework to allow Ghali to return to the topic, but also to continue to reiterate his need to share his thoughts about the world. «Peace is for everyone. It's what we learned in school. It's strange to find yourself in a world like this today. We have been taught one thing all our lives and at a certain point we feel that it can't be done. For me it is the most important thing: everything is to be shared. Success, all the goods we have on this planet, would not be riches if they were not shareable. They can only be shared if we are all well and if there is peace, if there are 10 of us in a room and 7 people are sick, the other 3 will also be sick. If in a room of 10 people 7 are well, the other 3, even if they are ill, will begin to recover. It is important that we all feel good, no matter how trivial it may seem,” Ghali said.

«Many things have happened since Sanremo, I find myself in a moment that is part of a process that began a year agoor even more: after my success in 2016 I toured and released a lot of music, broke a lot of records and did some beautiful things, but at a certain point I was clouded by everything. I detached myself from the music for a moment because I wanted to stop rolling, I wanted to stop and think, go back to my essence, which after a while I lost in the spotlight every day. I started really young and the success I had in those years was unprecedented, I didn't have broad shoulders enough to be able to handle everything”, insisted Ghali before reiterating, together with Fabio Fazio and his trusted alien Rich, at the end , his message of peace. «Stop all wars, stop all injustices, stop rejections, let's stop helping them at home. Stop, stop, stop.” There is no mention of “genocide” and, for some, this is a problem. Or perhaps it was a conscious choice so that the intention of welcoming rather than creating controversy over nothing was clear.
