In Italy, he has sometimes been referred to as il Genio del ghetto, in English roughly the Ghetto Genius. In 2005, Marracash released his first single, Popolare, as a free download via internet, a song which would subsequently appear on his LP Roccia Music. The Dogo Gang appeared on the album, however Marracash dominates most of the album.

The second single from the album, "Estate in Città", was released along with its video in early September 2008. The album itself reached #11 on the Italian Music Charts followed by Non Confondermi in October 2008 and Tutto Questo in February 2009. On July 13, 2010 he released his new album entitled Fino a qui tutto bene, the singles released are Cani Pazzi, Stupido, Fino A Qui Tutto Bene and Rivincita with Giusy Ferreri. The album went straight to #7 in the Italian albums chart.
