Diego's favorite singer


Caê

Caetano Veloso is a Brazilian musician and one of my favorite male singers in the world. He was born in Bahia in 1942 and is a complete artist able to write, produce, play and sing great songs. I started to listen to his music when I was a child; my mother is a big fan too and influences me a lot. Caetano’s music in general belongs to MPB (popular Brazilian music), but he also participated in important political and artistic movements and was a very important fighter against the military dictator in Brazil. For almost all the critics who know his work Caetano is a genius and has a good spot in the history of music and politics. He also is a good writer and has made a lot of soundtracks for Brazilian movies and some international movies too working with famous names like Pedro Almodóvar.
