Moreno ITF is an artist to watch! Fresh off the heels of his On The Radar freestyle, the Bronx, New York-based artist is back with a new EP for his fans to continue to enjoy his music, called ‘GANGOSO WORLD.’
The project is filled with 5-tracks of pure fuego, and Moreno ITF does not disappoint on any track. Offering up a vibe that’s completely new and different from his previous releases, Moreno ITF showcases his versatility as an artist and his unique sound.
“I feel really good about this project,” Moreno ITF said. “My wish is to have the world hear this project with their own ears and to understand what the movement is about and see how it resonates. I know that I have a crazy flow, but I really want people to listen to what I’m saying because I’m telling a story that I feel many can relate to.”
A story that many can relate to is correct, as each song touches on different themes of life. He talks about grinding and doing things the right way, meaning not causing harm to others but still being successful.
Each track is special in its own way, however standout tracks include “Berkin” and “Ruff,” and play a bigger role in pushing the narrative that Moreno ITF is striving towards.

What city are you from/ Where are you based now?
I actually mentioned this in my On The Radar freestyle, and some people from my country noticed, but I’m from Cristo Rey, Dominican Republic & the Bronx, New York. I’m currently based in the Bronx, New York.
What is your artist name? What is your real name? How did you get your artist name?
Moreno ITF is my artist name and Braulio is my real name. My mom’s nickname for me growing up was Moreno. I wanted to keep my artist name to true my history, so I went by Moreno and added the ITF after for my label Interface Records.
How would you describe your sound to readers who may not be familiar with you?
If you don’t know my music, the best way to describe my sound is a mix of Pop Smoke and Dominican artist, Rochy RD. It’s a blend of the streets of the Dominican Republic and the Drill sound of New York.
What’s one reason you are passionate about music and what inspires you?
I’m passionate about music because besides touching people with my music, it’s a way of therapy for me. I’m much better at writing songs than talking out my feelings. I think we all have something, and that works best for me. LIFE inspires me. Life, women, and struggles. Going through struggles and rising above it is inspiring because it’s a reminder to keep going and to not repeat the past.
Who are some of your main musical influences?
Lapiz Conciente, JC, Tego Calderón, and Canserbero
Tell us the name of the project you are currently promoting? What inspired this project?
I am currently promoting my debut EP, GANGOSO WORLD. The whole movement of the Gangoso Lifestyle is what inspired this project. What makes Gangoso special is that it’s a mix of every lifestyle; that means every way of life can be Gangoso, you just gotta grind and do it the right way, not by causing harm to others and still being successful.
Date that this project dropped or is set to drop?
The GANGOSO WORLD (EP) dropped on December 2nd, 2022.
What is this project about in your own words?
I feel really good about this project. My wish is to have the world hear this project with their own ears and to understand what the movement is about and see how it resonates. I know that I have a crazy flow, but I really want people to listen to what I’m saying because I’m telling a story that I feel many can relate to.
What’s next for you? Are you working on any upcoming projects we should be on the lookout for? Include some dates if you have them.
Traveling around the world. Keep on the lookout for something dropping in the Spring. I also might drop a Drill EP with another artist I can’t name yet sometime in 2023.
What message do you hope fans take away from your music and from this project?
You should NEVER give up. I say it in my music all the time. We all go through ups and downs and have doubts but you just gotta keep going, don’t stop.
