“It’s not a revenge song.” Fedez he is keen to underline this at his company’s release party new song Sex Shop which marks the third collaboration with Emis Killa, even if the requirements of a “revenge song” are all there. In fact, there is no shortage of references to an “infinite story that ended” which is not difficult to connect to end of the marriage with Chiara Ferragni to which are added a series of digs aimed at City Life (but not only).
“I’m sorry for having failed to meet the expectations of those who thought that in this piece I would insult my wife, she remains the mother of my children.” With this note, last night at the launch party of Sex ShopFedez presented the new feature with Emis Killa, who had been talked about for days, branded as a Shakira-style move with which to transform the end of a (media) love affair into notes.
Fedez’s new single and that reference to Chiara Ferragni
In the piece, written by Fedez and Emis Killa with Federica Abbate and Alessandro La Cava and produced by Anyma, in reality, there is no shortage of references to separation even if, again according to the rapper, what he wrote is “a little bad, but not inelegant”.
The bars tell of an “infinite story that ended”, which began with a bang and ended with an equally deafening thud. “Love isn’t made in sex shops/You were like a jackpot in the slots/And then you knocked me out/You say I’m a bastard/But for you I don’t change”, the chorus of the song already gone viral within hours of release. “Why hurt us, it’s a wedding ring/With the exit wound,” the song continues in a clear reference to the much talked about break ups between Federico and Chiara.
The dissing continues against the friends of the Cremonese influencer, who according to the rapper (as already said to Beasts) would have taken advantage of their wife for popularity and ulterior motives. “For every friend of yours thirsty for fame/You were spring water”, sings Fedez and then adds one of the hardest verses of the single, “Fairy hands, I touched you, you faded”. And then, “Tonight, under the heat of this siren/I swear that for you I would even go to jail”, read by some as a nod to the Pandoro Gate and the investigation into Ferragni’s aggravated fraud.
A few hours before the release of Sex Shop, Fedez gave an interview to The print edited by Luca Dondoni, in which he spoke about the period he is experiencing and gave a first exegesis of the song. “I’m over the moon because I think I no longer need crutches. I did the best thing I could do in a long time. I found myself”, his words.
“I believe I have written the most polite and precise comments that could be made regarding the relationship between me and Chiara. I want to express only respect towards her, because I have nothing to say and that’s right”, he admitted, “I don’t I certainly intend to throw sh…at the mother of my children Leone and Vittoria. Of course, the same doesn’t apply to those who were around them. I have no pity and I won’t have any pity.”
All eyes on Chiara’s social profiles waiting for new revenge posts after the outbursts of the last few days following the publication of the photos of her ex-husband with the French model Guarantee Authié which generated a strong wave of support and empathy towards him (for the first time since Pandoro Gate). Ferragnez were born thanks to a song and the epilogue could only be on the pentagram.
Sex Shop by Fedez with Emis Killa: the lyrics of the song
Love is not made in sex shops
You were like a jackpot in the slots
And then you knocked me out
You say I’m a bastard
But for you I don’t change
It’s an uphill life, an endless story
And then it’s over, my fingers hurt
Why hurt us, it’s a wedding ring
With exit hole
For every one of your fame-hungry friends
You were spring water
Fairy hands, I touched you, you faded
Tonight, under the heat of this mermaid
I swear I would even go to jail for you
I’m skidding at 300mph
I was just waiting for you
Love is not made in sex shops
You were like a jackpot in the slots
And then you knocked me out
You say I’m a bastard
But for you I don’t change
Senorita, you are dancing alone
Magnet for my gun
Never trust
You say I’m a liar
But for you I don’t change
Baby don’t ask questions because I can’t give answers
We stay in bed inside each other like matryoshka dolls
Dirty words that our mothers would say
Give me everything you can give me
I don’t leave here like thieves at the post office
Tonight, under the heat of this mermaid
I swear I would even go to jail for you
I’m skidding at 300mph
I was just waiting for you
Love is not made in sex shops
You were like a jackpot in the slots
And then you knocked me out
You say I’m a bastard
But for you I don’t change
Senorita, you are dancing alone
Magnet for my gun
Never trust
You say I’m a liar
But for you I don’t change
I’m one step away from emptiness
And even if I ask for forgiveness
You say I’m a bastard
Love is not made in sex shops
You were like a jackpot in the slots
And then you knocked me out
You say I’m a bastard
But for you I don’t change
