KARLON
GRIGA (LTD.DIGI)

Karlon Krioulo has released a new album. "Griga" upgrades Passaporti and is packed with talented guests: Bdjoy, Carlão, Neuro MC, Sonny Rap, Helio Batalha, Dino D’Santiago, AC Firmino, Toni Rex, Sagaz, Mista Badia, Primero G, Maria Tavares, Charlie Beats, Prod Therapia, Ildo Lobo, Orlando Pantera, DJ X-Acto, Ary @ Blasted Mechanism (bassline in the song “Sol na Céu”, and audio mixing and mastering of the album) make up the list of artists. Silvio Rosado is the creator behind Griga’s cover.
Increasingly more connected to his Cape Verdean roots, the rapper formerly known as just Karlon now goes by the name Karlon Krioulo. Similarly to Passaporti , the recipe for this new album draws heavily from the sounds of Cape Verde. Its name was inspired by the woman who used to take care of Karlon when his mother was at work, in Miraflores. “I lost touch with her and never saw her again. Later I heard that she had died. She was a very wise lady.”
