Afropop Worldwide recently traveled to Brazil. Encountering the sprawling megalopolis of São Paulo and its 22 million inhabitants is overwhelming at first but you start to pick out strands. Like the relationship between the musically rich but impoverished northeast of Brazil and its people who have traveled to Sao Paulo looking for work. We hear different takes of northeastern forró, now very popular in São Paulo--forró universitario and forró electronico. We visit with Chico Cesar, a northeasterner living in São Paulo, who debuts his new work for us. Plus lots more.
