Thiago Elniño has more than a decade of career behind him, but only in 2017 he released his first studio album.

Making boom rap influenced by afrobeat, the rapper created a conceptual work in which he approaches the question of race in Brazil. The album describes the routine of an unnamed black character before he reaches the age of 30. Elniño’s story is raw and cruel. But necessary to discuss the issues of social prejudice.
