The Brazilian band 360 formed in São Paulo, bringing together four musicians: Rodrigo Ogi on vocals, DJ Hum on turntables, Duke Correa on guitar, and Hamilton Rodrigues on drums. They started releasing music in the mid-2000s, with their self-titled debut album arriving in 2004. Their sound pulls from hip-hop, funk, and soul, with lyrics that often touch on social issues in Brazil.
Their 2006 album 'Pão e Circo' gave them one of their most recognized songs, the title track 'Pão e Circo.' The song critiques political distractions and social injustice, and it connected with listeners in Brazil. They followed it with other albums like 'Nossa Vez, Chegou' in 2011 and 'Negritude' in 2018, maintaining a focus on social themes in their music.
360's straightforward approach to political topics in songs like 'Agora' and 'Child' has drawn both attention and criticism at times. They've kept making music that speaks to Brazilian realities without much fuss about their place in the scene.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
