Editor's note

Zé Caradípia's mix of samba, rock, and reggae

A Salvador band that started in 1984, later becoming a solo project.

For a good sense of their range, try 'Diamante' and 'Samba da Amoreira'. They give you the early hit and the later samba feel in one go.

They put out 'Diamante' in 1988, a song that stuck around as one of their most recognized tracks. Their sound pulled from samba, rock, and reggae, then later albums like 'Terra de Cego' and 'Hipoterrorismo' added electronic touches and Afro-Brazilian rhythms. Songs like 'Samba da Amoreira' and 'Asa Morena' show how they moved across different Brazilian styles without losing their core.

Zé Caradípia formed in Salvador in 1984 with bassist Paulinho Boca de Cantor and drummer Tiné. After those two left in the early 2000s, Zé Caradípia kept going as a solo project, releasing albums like 'Voando Baixo' in 2006 and 'Palavra Cantada' in 2012.
