The third studio album from the São Paulo powerhouse, "III" is a vibrant sonic journey where Fela Kuti-inspired Afrobeat collides with samba, candomblé, highlife, jazz and dub, creating a sound both steeped in tradition and refreshingly forward-looking. Each track is built on explosive horn arrangements, propulsive percussion, and hypnotic basslines, showcasing the ensemble’s tight musicianship and telepathic interplay.

Recorded in their own Traquitana studio, the album reflects the energy of São Paulo’s streets and the spirit of resistance that runs through Brazilian music. Themes of identity, community, and cultural fusion pulse through every composition, with Bixiga 70 weaving West African grooves and Latin American rhythms into a uniquely Brazilian musical language.

"III" stands as a testament to the group’s vision: a borderless, deeply rhythmic, and irresistibly danceable sound that transcends geography — a celebration of the global African diaspora filtered through Brazil’s vibrant musical lens.
