• Re-release for the 20th anniversary. Remastered. Groundbreaking MPB/downtempo classic. Originally released in 2005, CU introduced the world to a bold new voice in Brazilian music.

  With her seamless fusion of samba, MPB, soul and downtempo grooves, Cu delivered a debut that was both deeply rooted and strikingly modern. With her smoky, unobtrusive voice, she evoked echoes of classic bossa nova while simultaneously venturing into new sonic territories – covering Bob Marley’s “Concrete Jungle” with Afro-Brazilian swing and adding dub and electronica accents.

  Celebrated for its elegance and quiet innovation, the album reached #1 on the Billboard World and Heatseekers charts, was nominated for a Grammy and was the highest charting US debut by a Brazilian artist since Astrud Gilberto. Now, for its 20th anniversary, CU returns remastered on vinyl – a modern Brazilian classic, reissued for a new generation of listeners. Includes classics: ‘Lenda’, ‘Malemolencia’, ‘Concrete Jungle’… Mastered by Colorsounds Paris.
