You just heard "Concrete Jungle"
Now we're going to discuss hip hop from São Paulo
Like New York City, São Paulo is very well known for hip hop
A well known artist here is called Rappin' Hood
He's from a favela in São Paulo and he sings a song called "Ús Guerreiros,"
speaking about the long history of slavery in Brazil and how centuries later not much has changed
There are still people in intense poverty and there is vast economic inequality here in this city
São Paulo has the highest amount of people who own helicopters in the world
At the same time there is a massive amount of people living below the poverty line, struggling to support themselves
The next song is called "Ús Guerreiros." Pay attention to the lyrics, because they are very powerful.
