{"id":78,"count":7,"description":"<strong>O Rappa<\/strong> is a Multi Latin GRAMMY Nominated Brazilian reggae\/rock band from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. Combining many styles such as rock, reggae, funk, hip hop and samba, O Rappa's songs contain sharp protests against the social problems in Brazil and the members of the band themselves are supporters of numerous social projects.\r\n\r\nIn 1993, reggae artist Papa Winnie came to Brazil but had no band to play shows with him. He immediately picked four people: Nelson Meirelles, Marcelo Lobato, Alexandre Menezes and Marcelo Yuka as the band. After Papa Winnie's shows, the four decided to stay together picking Falc\u00e3o as the 5th member and vocalist.\r\n\r\nIn 1994, they released their first album, on Warner, O Rappa. It was initially only known to small groups within the working class suburbs or Rio de Janeiro. In 1996 the album Rappa Mundi was released. Most of the music was a success, especially the cover of \"Hey Joe\", a song made famous by The Jimi Hendrix Experience.\r\n\r\nHowever it wasn't until the third album Lado B Lado A (Side B Side A) in 1999, that O Rappa gained widespread fame selling over 150 000 copies of that album. Their film clip for their song Minha Alma (My Soul) was also held in high regard winning many MTV Brasil's V\u00eddeo Music Awards.\r\n\r\nIn November 2000, drummer Marcelo Yuka was shot during a robbery. He tried to avoid the assault by slamming his car against the bandits. The incident left him a paraplegic and he was forced to leave the band. He was replaced by Marcelo Lobato.\r\n\r\nIn August 2001, the group released its first live album, Instinto Coletivo. It featured a couple of tracks recorded in the studio with the participation of Sepultura and Asian Dub Foundation.\r\n\r\nOn 7 July 2007, O Rappa performed at the Brazilian leg of Live Earth in Rio de Janeiro.\r\n\r\nIn 2008 they released 7 Vezes(7 times). In 2010, the band launched the live album and the DVD O Rappa Ao Vivo Na Rocinha(Live in Rocinha), which was recorded during a concert at Rocinha, Rio de Janeiro's largest favela. The album featured the band's biggest hits as well as many b-side tracks.\r\n\r\nConsidered by many[who?] as the most iconic and respected contemporary Brazilian band, they're consistent on their work. Capable of bringing many rhythms together and combining it into unique melodies that are impossible to label. Their rock and reggae influences are clear but other elements added to the melodies give the band the status of pioneers.\r\n\r\nOn May 3, 2017, the group announces on Facebook that after the tour ends in February 2018, it will pause 'no return'.","link":"https:\/\/www.rockdownload.org\/en\/download\/o-rappa","name":"O Rappa","slug":"o-rappa","taxonomy":"category","parent":0,"meta":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>O Rappa Discography Download - Rock Download (EN)<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"O Rappa discography download.
