Carmen Consoli he doesn’t have a good relationship with social media and for this reason he doesn’t have an Instagram profile. Nowadays she would seem very strange, but the singer revealed that she had never felt the need for her, until she went to America and her son installed WhatsApp on her: «I don’t use them. My son installed the first social network, WhatsApp. Because otherwise he couldn’t call me in America. Every time I used it people around me laughed. Then I understood: she had put the image of a monkey with a microphone as my background.”
There are those who see them as a social network that allows you to stay in touch with everyone, friends and relatives, and those who, like Carmen Consoli, see the telephone and social media as blackmail.

The words of Carmen Consoli
in a recent interview with Corriere della Sera, Carmen Consoli revealed that she does not use the telephone or social networks.
“I almost never carry my phone with me. Only if I’m not with my son, to talk to him. And I tell people clearly: ‘If I don’t answer you, there’s no point in insisting,'” the singer said, then continuing.
«It’s slavery: if you see a message and don’t reply people get offended. I don’t want this tool permanently attached to my body: why do I have to be always available? It’s a blackmailtoday’s entire hypercommunicative system is based on implicit blackmail. And blackmail is not something that has to do with poetry: it has to do with delinquency. There is material delinquency and spiritual delinquency. We have fought for a long time to free ourselves from all this. Why do I have to give this moral protection to the system? I’ll make things clear: I don’t pay any protection money», he concluded.
Carmen has taken a clear position on the topic and is determined to stay outside the box and the screens of social networks.
