Esposito when he took the stage after receiving the accolade.

On the verge of tears and in a broken voice, she continued, “Obviously I get emotional. Projects and records don’t matter; At the end of the day, our job is to move each other, to generate empathy. And just like when I was little, and I listened to great musicians, thanks to my mother Majo, for whom I ask for applause, when you grow up in my context, to dream of something so huge was impossible, what I had around me were people who worked from what could and not from what could. Who went out every day to build a life and survive. And suddenly put in place my life at ease and pleasure and embrace it, I can’t believe it”.

“It’s beyond me, people made me. It’s something I’m really sorry for, people put me in this place. If I’m here, it’s thanks to people, who in the end are grateful that you never forget who you are,” he said. “There is no talent that is worth without people who love you, thank you for being there to forge the woman that I am”, she expressed and left a message to the new generations: “The heavier, it seems to me, is to encourage boys and girls to do this, despite the fact that people are having a very bad time in this country, that no one is telling them they can’t, is inside. In passion they have love, contexts help things to happen but if you don’t have passion there is no context to help you. projects with music. And thank you to the women who brought me here and from whom I learn every day to fulfill this role.”
