The Subgenropedia

Samba Rock [sɐ̃-bɐ ɹɑk]: a Brazilian dance culture and music genre that fuses samba with soul, rock, and funk. It emerged from the dance parties of São Paulo's lower-class black communities after they had been exposed to rock and roll and African-American music in the late 1950s. See how the grove makin', booty shakin', Brazilian dance music has continued to influence the local culture...
