Background notes
Archive material and source history
Afrobeat MM formed in 2004, drawing from the Afro-Brazilian communities of Salvador, Bahia. Their sound pulls from Nigerian Afrobeat and Brazilian samba and bossa nova, with the song 'Você Quer Não?' becoming a recognizable track. They've released albums like 'Afrobeat MM' in 2006, 'Samurai' in 2008, 'Batuque' in 2010, 'O Mundo É Nosso' in 2012, and 'Você Quer Não?' in 2014.
Their lyrics sometimes touch on social justice and cultural identity, which has sparked some debate. The group includes Gilberto Gil on vocals and guitar, Jorge Ben Jor as a composer and multi-instrumentalist, the percussion and dance collective Olodum, and the horn players of Banda Black Rio.
