JVNXXR is a quartet from Salvador, Brazil, with members Preto Vaz on vocals, Carlos Ribeiro on instruments and production, Diogo Gomes on bass, and Léo Costa on drums. Their music pulls from Afrobeat, funk, and hip-hop, and they've been known to address social issues in their lyrics.
Their debut EP in 2018 was called 'Xangô,' named after the track that became one of their early anthems. They followed it with the album 'Afrofuturismo' in 2020 and 'Resistência' in 2022. Other songs in their catalog include 'Larry,' '762,' 'Alter Ego,' and 'Apenas Negócios.'
In 2019, they faced some criticism after a public performance, with some accusing them of inciting violence. They kept making music anyway.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
