Rangel Castro is a Brazilian singer-songwriter from Salvador who started gaining attention in the late 1980s. His debut single "Agora Chora" was a ballad that found an audience, though some critics at the time found his style and lyrics unconventional.
He kept recording through the 1990s, putting out albums like "Marcas do Tempo" in 1991 and "Vida Nova" in 1994. Songs like "Coração Bandido" and "Pare e Pense" show his approach to Brazilian rhythms with a pop sensibility.
In the early 2000s, his song "Filho do Diabo" drew criticism from some who saw it as provocative. Castro has said his music reflects his own experiences.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
