His journey into music began early, as he started writing his own lyrics at a young age. Drawing from iconic Italian hip-hop groups like Club Dogo and Marracash, as well as the growing trap scene of the mid-2010s, Glocky was particularly influenced by artists such as Sfera Ebbasta, Tedua, and Dark Polo Gang.
