Pearls Negras - Biggie Apple (Mixtape)

Being offered today is some fresh new music from Brazil. Rio De Janeiro rap girl trio Pearls Negras enter the scene with their brand new mixtape Biggie Apple. The piece is a selection of songs that highlight and reflect the danger of their home in the Vidigal favela — one of the slum areas that are close to Rio’s famous beaches Ipanema and Copacabana. Their music and lyrics take on the perspective of a teenager in one of the roughest and biggest cities in the world and signify a direct contrast to the misogynistic lyrics of Rio’s baile funk culture.
