"La genesi del tuo colore" (lit.'The genesis of your color') is a song by Italian singer Irama. It was released on 4 March 2021 by Warner Records.

The song premiered on the second evening of the Sanremo Music Festival 2021 and it ranked fifth at the end of the competition.[1]

Participation in the Sanremo Music Festival

[edit]

The song was originally supposed to be presented during the first date of the festival, but after one of the artist's collaborators tested positive for the COVID-19 virus, the presentation was postponed until the following evening.[2] The artist was replaced by the singer Noemi, who performed her competition song "Glicine".[3] Despite the singer's negative test result, another contributor tested positive for the virus the following day, forcing the entire Irama staff to undergo a compulsory two-week quarantine, as required by the COVID-19 containment measures in Italy.[4] Given the rules of the event, the artist should have withdrawn from the festival but, thanks to the intervention of Amadeus, presenter and artistic director of Sanremo 2021, Irama was allowed to participate by airing the performance of the song during the general rehearsal on stage.[5]

Music video

[edit]

The music video for "La genesi del tuo colore", directed by Gianluigi Carella, was released after the Sanremo premiere via Irama's YouTube channel. It was recorded at the Autodromo Nazionale di Monza, in the city where Irama grew up.[6]
