"The other weapons of Flávio Renegado"

You know that evil-looking rapper who speaks only in crime? Forget it, this is not Flávio Renegado. This has an easy smile. And that was smiling arrived and walked through the streets of Heliopolis, the largest favela in São Paulo. "I learned that sometimes a smile that reaches more aggression," he explains.

The smile disappeared from his face only when passed by a car with the trunk open, playing funk. And sorry that rap has lost ground to the rhythm of Rio in Sao Paulo. But soon returned to kill the mood and homesick, noting the similarities between Heliopolis and Vera Cruz, in the metropolitan region of Belo Horizonte. "Living in the slums is complicated. Has no privacy, you hear everything going on next door. And is this noise, this bunch of people, all the time." And once again opens the smile: "Favela woman is equal. If you treat it well, she treats you well." Happiness is completed to give the first bite of the sandwich's most famous venue, the Favela Mac. And very mustard. Not afraid of acidity. After nutrition, jumped at Cine Favela, the cultural association. Last Sunday was not sitting, was testing theater group. Next Peak: Samba Laje in Vila Santa Catarina, also in the south.

Renegado makes sure to stay close to the musicians of the wheel. Notes having fun with impromptu rhymes. Identifies with the trickery. The wobbly recognize, greet each other. Conversation with Chapinha, composer Samba da Vela and successes Quintet in White and Black. Night falls and the rain, the sky promised, not fall. He recorded a video with the phone to fuel social networks.

At 28, the miner Alto Vera Cruz, a community of about 40,000 residents on the outskirts of Belo Horizonte, has been divided between Minas Gerais and São Paulo to invest in the career and the launch of the second CD, My Tribe is the World. The album features production from Pliny Prophet bases DJ Spider and cameos from Edu Krieger and Thiago Delegate in guitars, programming and Donatinho Marcos Suzano on percussion. And sponsorship program in Natura Musical launches in Sao Paulo, Rio, Belo Horizonte, Minas. The work will also be released on vinyl in London and New York, without sponsorship. "Lack incentive to be Brazilian artist ambassador for our music out there."

The CD, in the opinion of itself, sounds more pop than the first. The result is due in large part to the changing music producer, who is now Daniel Ganjaman. Oiapoque New York brings reggae, samba, song of Orisha and even a salsa bases rhymes Renegade. The rhythmic diversity, however, is not enough to the lyrics, which focus on a single theme: the author himself. Narcissism? No, really. Autobiography, maybe. "It's hard for a guy who wanted to see the world. In My Tribe is the world, wanted to make a song more companion of people." With the debut CD - which has cameos from Aline Calixto, Julia Ribas, Max BO, Funk Buia, and Alayo Cubanito (both Cubans) and Girls Sinha - he traveled around the country and even traveled to Venezuela, Cuba, France, Spain , England, Holland and Australia. Not bad for an independent artist who bankroll the production itself. And then runs behind with concerts, lectures and a radio program.

Flavio says that it all started at age 11, in school, when he saw a presentation by a group of capoeira. He learned to play the berimbau and pandeiro and strengthened racial identity. With the money from the termination of the first job of office boy at age 18, he bought a guitar and composes his raps today with the help of the instrument. The song Renegade Flavio does not have a specific audience. "I always wanted to make music without borders. If it hits black, white, poor, rich, I'm happy." Even the mother, Mrs. Regina, turned fan. "Before, I did not like much, no. Today, she finds the time." And now think of the next CD. "From the first second pro, wanted to change everything. Nobody imagined he would do something more pop. Near The'll produce alone." But it'll be rap? Ri: "Good question. Do not know. Want to be not what they expect me to be. Just want to be me." - O Estado de S Paulo

Bio

Since his debut in 2008, Flavio Renegado seemed to predict that his songs would run the world. Entitled "From Oiapoque to New York," his first CD was released independently, sold over 7000 copies and took Renegado to Cuba, France, England, Spain and Australia, in addition to many Brazilian cities. His new work, “My tribe and the world”, was developed along the road, and was launched on October 19th, 2011.

Produced by Plinio Profeta - who already worked with Lenini, Tiê and O Rappa, and recorded in Rio de Janeiro, the CD has an urban sound and movements influenced by the multiplicity of contemporary sounds. Without being tied to geographical boundaries, Renegado dialogues with Afrobeat music, Caribbean rhythms, textures of American hip hop, the energy of electronic music and the trickery of the samba. A preview of this diversity can be seen in the title track, which is available for free download on the artist page on Facebook along with its video clip, with participation of renowned artists such as Donatinho and Edu Krieger.
As music transforms the life of Flavio ??Renegado and leads him to circulate throughout Brazil and abroad, also changes those who are touched by it, leaving the certainty that, like it or not, nobody can remain indifferent to his works. Not by chance, in recent years Renegado has played with some of the most original artists of the Brazilian music scene, such as the virtuous guitarist Toninho Horta, star of MPB Lenine, as well as recently acclaimed names of Brazilian music and avant-garde singer Aline Calixto and Fernando Catatau.

If the diversity of partners indicates the restlessness of Flavio Renegado, his extensive work in other areas confirms he is a complete artist. Rapper, composer, musician, poet, actor and community leader, Flavio Renegade left the narrow alleyways of Alto Vera Cruz (poor community in the city of Belo Horizonte) to take the world by storm with his work that takes hip hop from the ghetto and embraces the most diverse influences.

Aware of his ability to creating and moving through different artistic events, he seems to be aware of not belonging to any specific genre, class artistic set, or region. At the same time he absorbs all of them. A paradigm that explains the title of the new CD "My tribe is the world".

About Flavio Renegado

Born and raised in the slum Alto Vera Cruz, city of Belo Horizonte. Self-taught, the musician started singing at age 13, while beginning his work in social movements. In 1997 he was a founder of rap group NUC (Black Unit Aware), with which he presented throughout Brazil and countries of South America, Africa and Cuba. Subsequently, NUC became an NGO headed by Flavio, and develops socio-cultural work with young people from poor communities with a primary focus on young people of Alto Vera Cruz.

Since 2006, he began to devote himself to a solo career and since then has accumulated a series of concerts and participating in presentations of other artists. In his solo career, Flavio Renegado invests in incorporating other musical references such reggae, maracatu, Cuban music, samba and other cultural influences.
