Layback Music from Brazil

[Italo (Mod)]

I know a lot of you guys like this calm, soft, layback type of songs that makes you feel good and I thought I should show you some local singers, because we're great in doing this type of music..

Tell me if you liked it.


Céu - Malemolência (She's like the Brazilian Feist)


Bebel Gilberto - Momento


Vanessa da Mata ft. Ben Harper - Boa Sorte/Good Luck


Marisa Monte - Infinito Particular


Maria Rita - Encontros e Despedidas




I have high expectations hoping that Nelly will explore this sound on her latin album.. she already gave glimpses of it on Whoa Nelly. Fingers crossed.

hey italo what a nice post of yours...

well these all brazilian artists are succesful in Portugal, except Céu cuz i didn't and i don't know who she is... i mean i have never heard about her...

and from the songs that you post and my fav one is good luck/ boa sorte by vanessa da mata, and this song is doing great on the airplays charts and she has been selling too much albums, and her last one is at top 5 on portuguese albums charts.... yeah some brazilian artists are really succesful

italo i think u should show the song velha infancia by tribaslistas, i know it's an old song but i guess it's always worth while to listen it...

brasil é dez (i like brazil but it's a big pity that there is such violence in sao paulo and rio de janeiro, but this another issue to discuss)

I certainly like this kind of music, the only problems is that I understand just some little things! (jajaja)

In the other hand, I just knew Céu, she was here in Venezuela some time ago and I saw her in a program!

And Joao, there's violence everywhere, not just in Sao Paulo or Rio de Janeiro

yes vittorio, you are right , unfortunately you are, cuz violence is a reality and a "huge place" in all places in the world, and not only in sao paulo or rio de janeiro...

cuz i don't have doubts that rio de janeiro is "A cidade maravilhosa", but i'm sure that it would be more marvellous if there wouldn't have so much violence... but violence exists in everywhere...

but this topic is about brazilian music (some of them are really good and i sugges them too) and not about violence (anyway it was me who started this off-topic)
