Robson Vieira

Robson Vieira came up in Vila Isabel, a neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro where samba and funk were part of the air. He started playing guitar and singing, drawing from Brazilian sounds and some international soul. His song 'Caso Juliete' got attention in 2016, with its moody melody and lyrics that sparked conversation. Some listeners heard a story about complicated relationships, while others raised questions about what the song was saying.

He put out his first album, 'Nação Violeira,' the following year. It had samba and R&B touches, and later records like 'Verdadeiro Tropicalismo' and 'Samba Que Elas Gostam' kept mixing styles. Other songs like 'Confusa' and 'Hoje' show his ear for melody and a voice that can sound weary or tender. He's one of those Brazilian artists who works in a space between traditional rhythms and something more personal.
