Noel Rosa - " Fita Amarela "



Posted by "biriquinha29"

"Noel Rosa was a well-known and celebrated composer while alive, but is more and more popular as time passes. When active, popular music in Brazil was mainly "country" music, sertaneja music. But he felt free to offer his true-spirited samba in a new way, his way: sophisticated melodies conjugated with unusual lyrics, ranging from amorous metaphysics through a vivid picture of social life and relations in a poetic Rio of the '30s " ....

Nação Zumbi Tribute to Bezerra da Silva.

Bezerra da Silva - " Coco do B "



..."Bezerra da Silva was the unofficial spokesman for the slums of Rio de Janeiro. For 30 years his controversial brand of samba provided the soundtrack for the city's favelas and enraged the country's politicians, often the victims of his sharp tongue. His music, which made him a household name across Brazil, portrayed the day-to-day life of Rio's working classes. He sang about corrupt politicians, unfaithful women and the brutal codes of the city's shanty towns, dominated by drug traffickers."...... more  ( The Independent )
