Shortly thereafter he released his next album, Cosa succede in cittα ('What?s Happening in the City'), which became one of his weakest critically and did not reach past sales. The performance did not particularly please journalist Nantas Salvalaggio, who published a scathing article against Rossi, imploring how a public television station could show a drug-addict of the sort on a Sunday afternoon. The controversy actually increased Rossi?s popularity, and he quickly saw himself famous on a national level, particularly after performing live on Domenica In, a popular Italian television program. His most controversial album, Colpa d'Alfredo ('Alfredo's fault') followed in 1980 its title-track was censored from the radio and let loose bitter criticism because it contained lyrics such as troia ('bitch') and stronza ('asshole', referring to a female subject) in a period in which music censorship was widely practiced in Italy. In 1979, he released a second album, Non siamo mica gli americani ('It's Not Like We Are American'), which included, 'Albachiara', one of his biggest hits, and a ballad considered emblematic of Rossi?s poetic style. Encouraged by his friend Gaetano Curreri (now leading member of Stadio), Rossi released his first EP on June 13, 1977, which included the songs 'Jenny Φ pazza' (Jenny is Crazy) and?Silvia', and a full-length album in 1978, Ma cosa vuoi che sia una canzone.

In the meantime he supported himself by working as a DJ and founding, along with friends, one of the first private radio stations in Italy, 'Punto Radio', with which he began slowly and timidly showcasing his own songs.
