Portuguese Rap #1 – Black Company

I’ve been wanting to do this post for quite a while, but laziness always go the best of me, and finding info about the old school groups isn’t easy, and of course there are those classic albums that I also can’t find.

As I said before, Rapública was a Landmark for Portuguese rap, and most of the artists who were featured on that compilation, released solo albums, a lot are nowadays forgotten by most of people. I’ll post some of my favorites:




Coming from Miratejo, Black Company released the first big hit on the Portuguese Hip-Hop scene, and the first video, “Nadar” from Rapública.

Black Company were:

Guto(MC)
Bambino(MC)
Makas(MC)
KJB(DJ) (who was replaced by DJ Soon)

They released an album in 1995 called “Geração Rasca”, but unfortunately, the rip of the album that I own is protected with a wma licence, and the quality is pretty shitty, so I can’t find a way to convert it. “Filhos da Rua” is definitely on of my favorites, it has good beats, story-telling songs (“Tony” in particular, the story of a psychopath), party songs, deep songs, great scratches and the “Skills” skits, that contain freestyle battles. Classic.

My boss used to be in a rap crew or whatever in portugal and then they broke up. He moved to the uk then. He's never told me his band name but his name is acacio moreno or pio - dont think a.moreno is his bit name coz you guys have crazy long names. Like what you're doin' on this site btw!

I remember Pio. Tell him about Emanuel (I worked with him in Fnac), the name of the band was Líderes da Nova Mensagem (Leaders of the New Message) - South Side (of the river) like most of the initial bands. http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Líderes_da_Nova_Mensagem
