♬ Rio rapper Sain continues searching for the perfect beat, just like his father, Marcelo D2. In the album he releases tonight, Thursday, October 15th, “Última mesa da Lapa”, Sain writes the beats for 17 of the 18 tracks, having delegated only one track to the São Paulo duo Deekapz.

In the album “Última mesa da Lapa”, Sain tunes into the radio universe, sequencing the 18 tracks like a continuous radio station program, with vignettes, voices, conversations, noises and of course, songs.

Also acting as presenter of this imaginary radio, the rapper receives BK, Leall, Luccas Carlos, Akilla, Ca$hline, DG, Jxnv$, Matchola, Murica Sujão, Peres and Rare Gnxt for feats throughout the album produced by Sain himself.

Radio presenter Leandro Resende appears as announcer while MC Carol de Niterói, João Gomes, Di Melo and Kib7 appear in vignettes and interventions embedded in the album.

The frequency is hip hop, but Sain moves through boom bap, R&B, samba and MPB between songs such as “Bloco 7”, “Profecias profanas”, “Guerreiros no Jardim”, “Luz acesa”, “Abismo”, “Nothing changed”, “Febre disgradada”, “Palermo”, “Chablis e vieiras”, “Preciso”, “Balada sem nome”, “Melhorei”, “Papo nalógica”, “Gangsta”, “Full passport”, “Foul game”, “Last table in Lapa” and “Late checkout”.
