Lenine

2006-07-19

After three "remarkable" Brazilian albums, Lenine (pronounced Leh-NEE-nee) makes his debut in America with his self-titled U.S. release. In the past, he's won "Best CD," "Best Male Vocalist," "Best Song," and two Latin Grammys. His music has been compared to Ry Cooder, Beck, Silvio Rodrigues, Stevie Wonder, Massive Attack, and the Beatles. All in Spanish. – Ben Kleyn
