Zuco 103 - New Video

ZUCO 103 NEWS:
Watch out for the New Video Na Mangueira on the .WWW!
At "Estação Primeira de Mangueira", One of Rio's most revered samba schools, there is no samba in vain, no "One Foot Samba" (= no clumsy dancers). At Mangueira, we can hear the stories of those who complain about life, and lick all their wounds so they can go on dancing. This is an ode to the fathers, mothers, children, uncles and aunts of samba, those who planted the seeds: Cartola, Jamelão, Gradin, Zé com Fome. Long live Mangueira, where joy has no hour, and sadness has no place...

Bantu in den World Music Charts

Bantu is heading the top of the World Music Charts: Following the excruciating 'Intro' is a sparkling collection of Afro/Euro hiphop fusion, led by Ade Bantu's Bantu collective. With Adewale Ayuba taking the MC duties and Fela Kuti's original guitarist Kologbo Oghene upping the groove quotient, it pushes the Fuji envelope further than it's been pushed to date, in an meeting of African, Islamic and Western traditions which lives to tell the tale.
