about
The first collaboration between Rio de Janeiro-born singer, Ramus and American/Brazilian producer, Maga Bo. J. Ramus aka Ramus, a singer from Rio with a great influence from Samba and Rio funk in his melodies, began his journey with Sound system in 2001. Today he is part of the Itapuca dub sound team and his reinterpretation band Ramus e a Massa.
Along with the obvious Baile Funk elements, the track makes references to Brega funk and "pisêro," from the Northeast of Brazil to London's Dub Step and even Jamaican Ska. The lyrics revolve around a popular Brazilian slang expression, "Daquele Jeitão," which loosely translates as "That Way." Reflecting on the chemical dependencies of our time, it questions, without judgment, to what extent this escape is good for us.
