AMG Review of Bicho Solto O XIII
Alvaro Neder
All Music GuideA predictable release by the Brazilian important composer Djavan, Bicho Solto, his 13th album, has no surprises. Fully danceable in funky watered-down versions (with the exception of the beautiful, fluent melody of "Retrato da vida" and the angular "Tăo raro"), surrounded by the indulgence of a faithful audience earned over the years by his swinging compositional style and by his lyrics with no other meaning than the rhythmic/musical, supported by the musical industry that smiles at his insipid funk "Vocę E" and his retro-swing "Atitude," anticipating expressive sales records, Djavan doesn't make any attempt to push the envelope.
