HO UN PROBLEMA

Song Meaning

The lyrics of "HO UN PROBLEMA" present a raw, almost confessional, yet boastful declaration of recurring issues. The narrator, Zyrtck, immediately states his "problema" involves "troie" (sluts/hoes) and "canne" (weed), establishing a dualistic theme of sexual encounters and substance use. This isn't framed as a cry for help, but rather a blunt acknowledgement of persistent habits that define his current state. The repetition of "Ehi, ehi" and the drawn-out "Uoh, uoh" create a hypnotic, almost resigned atmosphere, underscoring the cyclical nature of these "problems." The central tension lies in the narrator's seemingly unshakeable entanglement with these vices, presented with a mixture of bravado and a hint of self-awareness. He specifies his issues: "troie nane" (short sluts) and "canne lunghe" (long weed), adding a peculiar, almost absurd detail that grounds the abstract "problem" in concrete, if crude, imagery. The line "Sai che giro dei drum con il cazzo al muro" (You know I spin drums with my dick on the wall) is a particularly striking image, suggesting a reckless, exhibitionist energy tied to his lifestyle. This isn't about overcoming these issues, but about living within their orbit. Lil Kaneki's verse amplifies this theme, expanding the vocabulary of his "problema" to include "troie cagne" (bitch sluts) and "cagne troie" (slut bitches), blurring the lines between the subjects of his desire and the nature of the encounters. The phrase "Fuma troppa erba e dopo ho troppe voglie" (Smokes too much weed and then I have too many desires) directly links his substance use to his sexual urges, creating a feedback loop. The overwhelming repetition of "Ho un problema con le puttane" (I have a problem with prostitutes) in his section transforms the initial, somewhat varied issues into a singular, focused obsession, hammering home the central theme with relentless intensity. Ultimately, the effectiveness of these lyrics stems from their unflinching directness and the almost aggressive repetition. The artists don't shy away from crude language or explicit themes, instead leaning into them to create a visceral portrayal of a lifestyle. The lack of a clear narrative arc towards resolution or introspection makes the repeated "problema" feel like an inescapable part of the narrator's identity, leaving the listener with a potent, if uncomfortable, impression of his current reality.
