Background notes
Archive material and source history
Edu Franco came up in Rio de Janeiro's favelas, where he started writing songs about the life he saw around him. His music pulls from samba, funk, and rock, a mix that was clear from his self-titled debut album in the early 2000s. The track 'Seresteiro a Perigo' became his most well-known song, its lyrics about police brutality and inequality drawing both strong support and significant criticism.
He kept recording through the 2000s and 2010s, putting out albums like 'O Samba que Faz a Cabeça' and 'Vida Bandida'. His work sometimes put him at odds with political groups, but he continued performing and writing in the same vein. Franco has also recorded with other Brazilian artists, including Zeca Pagodinho and Seu Jorge.
