Description
Tribe is a collection of music from the different social groups of world, whom have embraced our heritage back to Africa, building a new narrative from the same drum.
(Funk carioca), also known as (Favela funk) and, in other parts in the world, (Baile Funk) and Brazilian funk, is a hip hop style from Rio de Janeiro, derived from [Miami bass] and [gangsta rap] music. "Baile funk", in Brazil, refers not to the music, but to the actual parties or discotheques in which the music is played from baile, meaning "ball".
From the mid-1990s on, it was a mainstream phenomenon in Brazil. Funk songs discuss topics as varied as poverty, human dignity, racial pride of black people, sex, violence, and social injustice. Social analysts believe that funk carioca is a genuine expression of the severe social issues that burden the poor and black people in Rio.
This is the first of many deep dig's, exploring remixed sounds, inherited culture, and black diversity.
Welcome to the Tribe.
