The hip hop artist chose the Italian joint to film the clip for upcoming track Down Low, with a few locals who showed up getting to play extras dining in the background.
According to Marbilus, the song is about, "a girl whose got a partner or boyfriend or husband and he doesn't treat her well. So I step in and try and fill in the shoes pretty much".
The song also features American R&B singer Cory Jones, who Marbilus met through social media and collaborated with online.
Impressively, the clip was filmed by local Matthew Robinson, who is only 16 years old.
"I met him through another artist and we pretty much just linked up and I thought, 'well I can help him and he can help me' kind of thing, helping each other," Marbilus said.
"He's really enjoying it and I'm really enjoying working with him, he's really talented. So it's great, it's working out for both of us."
The clip will be available in a fortnight - you can check it out at facebook.com/kayomarbilusmusic.
The video marks the beginning of an onslaught of new material from Marbilus, who plans to release two new tracks a month until the release of his second album Ink, Flesh and Gold which is due out in November.
And Down Low won't feature the only collaboration on the album. Marbilus also revealed he's recorded a track with American singer and producer Mike Posner, whose clip for his song I Took a Pill in Ibiza has almost 500 million views on YouTube.
That track should be available "in a couple of weeks".
