Camorra

Although hip-hop trio Camorra takes their name from a branch from the Italian Mafia that operates within their indigenous Brazil, their message is a lot more positive compared to the gangster connotations might imply. Rappers Vinícius Anderson, Ney, and Carlos Cleverson are chiefly worried about the issues of metropolitan Brazil, specifically the poverty and medicines running rampant within their hometown of São Paulo. Created circa past due 1997, it required Camorra a while to land an archive deal, plus they produced their first documented appearances backing additional artists, including Maximum de Castro and Wilson Simoninha. Finally, the hip-hop-oriented Brazilian label Trama provided them a offer, and Camorra started focus on their debut recording. During the composing process, they experienced several visitor DJs before buying DJ Keffing like a long term 4th member. The recording, Virus, premiered in middle-2001 and was later on nominated for Greatest Rap/Hip-Hop Recording at the 3rd Latin Grammy Honours.
