Both incorporate a lot of hiphop rhythms and sampling into the highly
percussive sound of the bloco-afro bands like Olodum, Timbalada and
Ile Aye. Molla in fact was a breakout artist from the Timbalada
group.
Oh, and how could I forget the gorgeous female vocalist Daude?
(Pronounced dah-OOD-jay, if you're asking at the record store.) I
wasn't nuts about all of her debut album from earlier this year, but
an awful lot of other people were, and I did like her injection of rap
and sampling into the bossa and samba beats.
