Dali And Jay-Z
let your mind run as wild as a salvador dali painting with ana clara ribeiro
featuring artists like
The Carters, Toro y Moi, Gorillaz, Kendrick Lamar, Nori, Jurassic 5, Typical Cats, April + VISTA, BROCKHAMPTON
A soundtrack for an art gallery located in the ghetto streets.
Where graffiti and fine arts meet. After all, there should have never been a difference between them.
For jazz and hip hop lovers, free thinkers, dreamers, supporters of art in all its forms, for those who are open to see beauty and truth anywhere, without giving a fuck about the patterns of how art should look or sound like, we’ve got some fancy jams for you to chill and let your mind run as wild as a Salvador Dali painting.
If you’re that type that would buy both a Guernica replica for the walls of your house and a Biggie Smalls shirt for your wardrobe, this playlist is for you.
Figure Numatic – Nubiyan Twist
13 March 2018
I swear this track entered my personal list before I knew Nubiyan Twist is a woman-fronted project with a Brazilian member in it!
I am a Brazilian woman and I never get enough of explaining how much I love supporting female artists and Brazilian artists in Music to Dali & Jay-Z Lovers, especially now, in March, when we are celebrating Women’s History Month…
Rock the House – Gorillaz
6 March 2018
So, how many people are ready to rock the house?
Trip hop band Gorillaz Gorillaz caused a commotion in the music business for their unique concept of a fictional universe with cartoon personas instead of “real members”, and although that alone is pretty cool, their music was just as cool…
Vacation (feat. J Live) – Jazz Liberatorz
27 February 2018
What’s not to love about a track in which both instrumental and lyrics can take you to a trip around the world? And by “world” I don’t mean only Earth, but also your mind, your own world.
Well, allow yourself to take a “Vacation” by listening to this awesome track, which, itself, is an intercontinental trip, being produced by jazzy hop French kings, Jazz Liberatorz, featuring the vocals of American multi talented artist J. Live…
Weekend – Perc%nt
20 February 2018
Do you ever have those weeks when all days look the same? You wander through the whole week just to get to the weekend, and when it finally comes, it’s not even as fun as you expected… Your whole week is just… Bleh.
Eu Preciso Ir – Tatiana Bispo
13 February 2018
I’m always happier when the artist of the track of the week is from Brazil, or when it’s a woman. When it’s both, I’m twice happier!
And that’s the case here: Tatiana Bispo is a rapper, singer and songwriter from São Paulo whose work, either solo or when collaborating with other artists, is definitely worth a listen.
Sanctuary ship – Nujabes
7 February 2018
The music you hear in Music to Dali & Jay-Z Lovers might be one of a kind in the artist’s career, or might as well be made by an artist whose entire concept revolves around this same style that inspired our playlist. From this last team, we bring you Nujabes, one of the most important names in the Japanese and worldwide hip hop scene.
Love and peace (feat. Jeon Inkwon) – MFBTY
30 January 2018
Make room for a beautiful blend of reggae, hip hop and jazz in our playlist! It’s truly an honor to have MFBTY in Music to Dali & Jay-Z Lovers.
Words cannot describe the amount of respect and admiration I have for these people.
Formed by three legends of Korean hip hop – rapper Bizzy along with the dopest couple ever, Tiger JK and Yoon Mirae, – MFBTY’s music is all about breaking barriers, embracing who you are and using music as both an escape from the world and a tool to make it better.
Butterfly With Wet Wings – Bry’nt feat. Leikeli47
23 January 2018
“Someone’s life is another one’s lesson”, Bry’nt says in the beginning of this song.
In “Butterfly with wet wings”, rapper Bry’nt addresses real life hardships and conflicts, with the help of Leikeli47’s beautiful vocals, and smooth, mind-expanding instrumentals…
Somewhere Shining – GOOD WTHR feat. Jay Be
16 January 2018
Some say nothing cures the pain of losing a loved one; some say that it, just like everything, shall eventually pass. But, either if it’s to take the pain away or to just distract you from it, channelling feelings into something else that you love just as much is always a great thing to do.
Ela Disse – Marcelo D2 feat. Thalma de Freitas
9 January 2018
Samba and hip hop are an awesome combination and Marcelo D2 always knew it. But in “Ela disse”, this fabulous Brazilian rapper made it even better by adding a few jazzy horns and a brief but oh so sweet collaboration with actress & singer Thalma de Freitas.
Picasso – The 49ers
18 December 2017
Art metaphors and comparisons with great painters are not rare in hip hop – as you’ve seen from Beenzino’s Dali, Van, Picasso; and as you can see now with Delaware hip hop duo The 49ers.
Thought U Wuz Nice (Instrumental) – Phife Dawg / J Dilla
12 December 2017
A member of legendary hip hop group A Tribe Called Quest, Phife Dawg died in 2016, but left an interesting solo work too. His 1999 EP “Bend Ova / Thought u wuz nice” was produced by J. Dilla (also a hip hop icon, gone 10 years before Phife) and contains pearls such as this track.
