This album is considered to be one of the most important italian hip hop albums. [1][2] The rapper Madman quoted it in his first album Escape from Heart , in the track Trash Music:

E non so niente a memoria, nemmeno l'Ave MariaAnd I don't know anything by heart, not even the Ave Maria

Ma so qualcosa di storia tipo Mr. SimpatiaBut I know something about history, like Mr. Simpatia

In this verse, Madman says that like a Christian knows by heart the Ave Maria and other prayers, MadMan knows by heart some records that have made the history of Italian rap, which for him is religion.[3]
