World Music: Seu Jorge, "Tive Razao"
(Brazil) If this musical fellow looks familiar you may have seen him regaling Bill Murray and Willem DaFoe in "The Life Aquatic," and it certainly accounts for their presence in his video. Jorge's streetwise demeanor is no pose; he was raised in the notoriously tough slums, or favelas of Brazil. He worked his way out, making his first film appearance in the film "City of God" as Knockout Ned. Jorge's approach to music is stripped back - it's all voice and feeling, and despite "Tive Razão's" romantic leanings, there's still a raw edge there that is the favela asserting its influence.
