"Sciccherie" is a song by Italian rapper and singer Madame.[1] It was released on 14 December 2018 by Sugar Music as Madame's debut release with a major label at the age of 16.[2][3]

The song received airplay from Italian major radio networks, including Radio DeeJay.[4][5] In August 2019, Cristiano Ronaldo posted an Instagram story on his account, with a video of himself listening to "Sciccherie" while on his home's terrace. Ronaldo's story attracted media attention on the song, leading several media to talk about Madame's music for the first time.[6][7][8] In April 2020, the song was certified gold by the Federation of the Italian Music Industry, denoting 35,000 equivalent units in Italy,[9] and reached the platinum certification (70,000 units) in September 2021.[10]

On Klamour, Gabriele Zangarini compared her voice in "Sciccherie" to Veronica Lucchesi of La Rappresentante di Lista, describing it as "sometimes enraged, then whispered, often theatrical".[11]
