Seu Jorge
Singer Seu Jorge led Farofa Carioca, a major-label Brazilian pop outfit, before mounting a solo career in 1999. He collaborated with Beastie Boys producer Mario Caldato on the commercial and critical smash Samba Esporte Fino. In 2002, Jorge was cast as Knockout Ned in the Academy Award-nominated City of God and two years later he co-starred in Wes Anderson's The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, greatly elevating his global profile. In 2004 Jorge released Cru and followed with The Life Aquatic Studio Sessions, assembling all 14 of the songs he recorded for the film. América Brasil: O Disco appeared in 2008.
