Dean Martin, born Dino Paul Crocetti (June 7, 1917 – December 25, 1995), was an Italian American singer, film actor, and comedian. He was one of the most famous music artists in the 1950s and 1960s. He was often referred to as “the coolest man who ever lived,” and many people worldwide hung on to Dean Martin’s every smile. He was a magnificent singer whose voice oozed sensuality as he beguiled audience after audience with an aura of flippant nonchalance. Known as One of the crooners who embraced his Italian heritage the most, his smooth voice could croon his way through a ballad like no other, but when he's singing in Italian, that's when he truly shined. Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra were the best of friends, on and off stage. “They respected each other — they were not known to be jealous of each other, Sinatra made matching diamond pinky rings with his signature crest for the bosom buddies. Dean reportedly never took his off.

The Rise and Explosion of the Italian American vocalists, in the first half of the 20th century, Many Italian American vocalists initially found success singing traditional Italian songs, including Neapolitan classics. Italian American vocalists also played a crucial role in the rise of American popular music, particularly during the "Golden Age" of the 1940s, 1950s and 1960s. They navigated the challenges of assimilation and prejudice, often finding acceptance through their musical talents. Many became prominent figures in the growing and developing quickly flourishing jazz and pop scenes. Their success in music contributed to a shift in how Italian Americans were perceived in society.
