As Verdades is one of the best jams in Babalaze, Azagaia’s debut album. I consider this Mozambican as one of the best Portuguese-rapping artists of the moment, but several others, like my cousin Victor, contend that he’s simply the best. Feel the lyrics, and if you’re not a Portuguese speaker, I bet you’ll appreciate his flows and the power of the images here.
As Verdades é um dos melhores ‘brindes’ de Babalaze, àlbum de estreia do moçambicano Azagaia, que para mim é um dos melhores rappers a cantar em Português. Para outros, tal como o meu primo Victor, é mesmo o melhor. Sintam a letra, curtam as imagens, vibrem com o flow:

Caipirinha Lounge is all about music in Portuguese or by Lusophone artists. It's born out of a sincere belief that Lusophone music should reach a much larger audience. The lounge features music from Brazil, Angola, Portugal, Guine-Bissau, Cabo Verde, São Tomé & Principe, Mozambique, Galicia, and even Timor-Leste. Occasionally, there will be posts about singers so good that the fact that they do not sing in Portuguese is momentarily overlooked.
The purpose of this bilingual blog is purely educational. Plug in your earphones and hear rhythms from places you have never heard of, from artists you have never heard about, sung in the world's most beautiful language. If you like a song, you can download it by right clicking on it and then clicking "save target as". If you like it a lot, buy the cd, support the artist, keep good music alive.
If you are a singer or a label and want a particular song taken down, please contact me. Or, if you have music you think I will enjoy, do send! claudio.silva(at)caipirinhalounge.com
