The tweet of Enzo Mazza, CEO of Fimi, summarizes the 'firepower' of the artists who will take the stage of the next festival (1-5 February), announced yesterday evening by Amadeus live on Tg1. Since 2010 the Federation of the music industry has formalized the sales certifications of music recordings and the platinum record has awarded the 50 thousand copies sold.

    Mazza notes "another record" of Sanremo 2022: "I don't think I've ever seen a cast with three artists who were first classified @FIMI_IT and immediately competing at the Festival", writes sempresu Twitter. The reference is to Sangiovanni (17 graduate records), Rkomi (33 platinum) and Blanco (27 platinum), who will compete together with historical voices of Italian music such as Gianni Morandi, Massimo Ranieri, Iva Zanicchi, or consolidated presences such as Noemi, Emma, Elisa, Giusy Ferreri, FabrizioMoro.
