10k watt, the stage name of Alessio De Caro, is a rapper born in 2004 in Castel Volturno, in the province of Caserta, Italy. Among the first artists in Italy to explore cutting-edge subgenres such as jerk and hoodtrap, he has built a distinctive musical identity thanks to his pen, one of the most recognizable in the underground rap scene, through which he paints poetic imagery, sharp insights, and a sense of irony that leaves a lasting mark.

After releasing two EPs in 2024 that defined his sonic universe, in 2025 he put out “Cadono Dal Pero”, his first mixtape, further solidifying his artistic journey. His steady and organic growth has recently been amplified by his collaboration with Rooc Lee on “iCloud”, which helped bring renewed attention to his catalog.

In June 2026, 10k watt joined the Sugar roster and announced “Partenope”, the single that anticipates his upcoming project.
