Solicited by the best rappers in the country, this prolific young artist continues to be inspired by both urban and traditional movements, and has become one of the biggest and most daring proponents of baile-funk.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe title=\"VHOOR - Verde\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/l-WWDXSZz18?feature=oembed&#038;autoplay=1\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><figcaption> VHOOR &#8211; Verde <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;<em>I make beats pretty much all day, everyday<\/em>,&#8221; admits the hyperactive producer, &#8220;<em>I love to be able to create and share this music with the people who follow my work and I believe it\u2019s about sharing positive vibes.<\/em>&#8221;   While he is known for his fresh and modern interpretation of baile-funk, VHOOR is also comfortable with hip-hop and trap, and considers himself a &#8220;<em>Brazilian and Afro-Latino beatmaker above all<\/em>&#8221; who absorbs all the styles of music that his huge country has to offer, appropriating &#8220;<em>the ancestral influences that each genre has in common.<\/em>&#8221; The Belo Horizonte-native also notes his desire to maintain this panoramic vision of self, with another project already slated that will take another look at Brazilian boogie&#8230; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The album <em>Ritmo<\/em> will be available on April 2.
