A Brasília band that built a career on reggae rhythms and socially conscious lyrics.
For their core sound, start with 'Dentro da Música II.' To hear their collaborative side, there's 'Reggae Amor' with Carlinhos Brown.
Natiruts gave Brazilian reggae a distinct voice, one that could feel both laid-back and pointed. Their 2002 album 'Quero Ser Feliz Também' was a genuine breakthrough, and songs like 'Presente de Um Beija Flor' carried their message-forward style. They've kept that blend of groove and thoughtful writing going for decades, which is why a track like 'Dentro da Música II' still feels like their signature.
They formed in Brasília in 1996 around Alexandre Carlo, Luís Maurício, and Bruno Dourado. The success of 'Quero Ser Feliz Também' in 2002 established their place, and they've kept recording through albums like 'Raçaman' in 2012 and 'Índigo Cristal' in 2020.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
