Brazilian MPB has the second best music vibe ever, loosing (maybe) only to reggae. Also if i had to rank it bossa nova would definetely come in third.

this only furthers my theory that Brazil is lightyears ahead of any other culture musically

MPB and Bossa Nova have enjoyed little bursts of popularity in the american consciousness, most recent one on clock app as of 2021ish? (Time is fake now) Point is I almost never see Jorge Ben Jor mentioned and that’s a travesty . I see Sergio Mendez mentioned all the time but his biggest hit Mas Que Nada was written by Jorge and is so much better and bathed in that samba feel, like everything Jorge makes. Listen to Puro Suingue a compilation/alternate takes Of some of Ben’s best, best track, imo, is track 6. O Telefone Tocou Novamente.
Hope you enjoy!

there are few funkier, brighter and warming than Tim maia ! Brazil is a true treasure trove for music (especially the world of mpb) but no one covers the genre pools of funk, soul, disco, bossa and samba like him. Music to make you stay out in the sun and count every second as a special little moment

Feel!!! Show people that feeling, tell them how much you enjoyed spending time with them, tell them their hair looks nice, laugh out loud, cry in public and stop caring about this nonchalant bullshit. Numb is not in!!! There will be a time where you can't feel but that time will also pass.

Okay, quick disclaimer: I know most art is political (firm believer here!), but I'm talking enjoyment-first right now. That said, I absolutely encourage consuming things with different viewpoints from yours! If I'm watching a political documentary I hate, I'll probably keep going because the goal is education, not instant enjoyment.
But a show I just find... bad? Why waste precious time forcing myself through something purely unenjoyable when the whole point is to relax or be entertained? Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of those people who drops a show after hating the pilot – it needs an opportunity to prove itself for a few episodes! Luckily, I just tend to really enjoy what I'm watching once I get past that haha.

Literally one of my favorite activities.
I love ranking movies, rock genres, hangout spots, chocolate, flirting one-liners... all of it. It’s obsessive and weirdly satisfying.
Like it so much that TierMaker isn’t enough, I handwrite tier lists in my diary like a medieval scribe with opinions.
I present to you guys my official chocolate tier list, crafted yesterday while suffering through truly awful free chocolate.
