  • New documentary explores Brazilian grime scene image
  • A documentary following Brazilian grime artists is coming out next year. Written and directed by writer, DJ and music researcher Jesse Bernard, COMO VOCÊ documents how artists such as SD9, Drope, TBC Mob, MC Smith, Lei Di Dai, Febem, Cena and Cesrv fuse their native baile funk, rap and dancehall styles with UK sounds, predominantly grime and UK drill. Shot in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, the documentary also explores social issues faced by young people in Brazil. It will be accompanied by Pra Cima, an official soundtrack EP including music from Cesrv, Febem, Lei Di Dai and SD9. The synergy between UK and Brazilian scenes has led to the Brasil Grime Show YouTube channel and the BRIME! EP on Butterz. Revisit our feature on the phenomenon.
