Italian authorities have raided a radio station used by the Mafia to broadcast messages to its soldiers. Radio Camorra was shut down by police struggling to stop a recent blood-letting that has seen 18 murders and 11 attempted murders in the city of Naples alone. Run by the powerful Birra family, the station broadcast songs and gave shout-outs on-air to communicate messages to members who were out-and-about and to homies listening in jail…
Radio Camorra mainly played Neomelodic music, a little-known genre that
fuses traditional Neapolitan love songs and cheesy Mafia gusto. A big
hit on Mafia FM was by a guy called Pino Mauro and his album “O
Fuorilegge” (The Outlaw). His listeners knew they were in for some real OG shit with tunes like“L’onorata società” (The Honored
Society) and “Turmiento ‘e carcerato” (Prisoner’s lament).
