Background notes
Archive material and source history
Jr Ramos and Jeru Banto came together as a duo in Brazil, with Jr Ramos from the Madureira neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro and Jeru Banto originally from Salvador. They started playing in local bars and clubs, building a following through live performances before recording their first album in 1997.
Their 1998 album "Manda Quem Pode" gave them their biggest hit with the title track, a samba song that became widely known in Brazil. The song's chorus about who gets to give orders and who doesn't resonated with listeners and became something of an anthem.
Jr Ramos handled lead vocals, guitar, and percussion while Jeru Banto contributed vocals along with cavaquinho and tambourine. They worked primarily in samba and pagode styles, with "Manda Quem Pode" remaining their most recognized song.
