Help Mental Abstrato get to the Circulart Festival
22 April, 2024Excuse the hyperbole, but the Brazilian collective Mental Abstrato are one of the best hip-hop jazz outfits in the world. I reckon, anyway. They’ve been chosen to represent Brazil at Medellín’s celebrated annual Circulart Festival alongside the singer, Roberta Campos.

Here’s a link to my review on Sounds and Colours of the band’s brilliant 2019 meisterwerk, Uzoma – just to underline what a good cause this is.
