It seemed he would be the only "survivor" of the old X Factor jury .
And instead Manuel Agnelli also leaves, as well as Emma, Hell Raton and Mika.
Instead, Rkomi will be the fourth judge of the next edition of Sky's talent . The name of the Milanese rapper, born in 1994, is added to those of Fedez , Ambra Angiolini and Dargen D'Amico , with three absolute debuts and a great comeback.
Born Mirko Manuele Martorana , Rkomi was in Sanremo with “Insuperabile”. His album "Taxi Driver" was the best-selling album of 2021 and Rkomi is the third most listened to Italian artist of last year. "From the school desk to the # XF2022 judges table, to give advice and keep learning new things. I can't wait to meet you all!", He wrote on social media.
As for Dargen D'Amico - the third name announced after Fedez and Ambra - his Sanremo 2022 hit "Dove si balla" was a success : to date Double Platinum with over 80 million total streams and more than 20 million of view.
Therefore, only the conductor is missing : we are talking about Francesca Michelin or Victoria Cabello, fresh winner of the Beijing Express, but the mouths for the moment remain sewn by Sky.
The show produced by Fremantle will arrive on Sky from September but the work of the judges will begin in a few days with the Auditions, which will once again be a great event with the public in attendance: the recordings will take place on 4, 5, 7, 8 and 12 June at the Allianz Cloud in Milan.
