The day before he became the first extreme right president in the history of Brazil, Jair Bolsonaro went on Twitter and asked the world: "Good night! Who is Marcelo D2?"
Marcelo D2, who was in his car at the time, took a selfie and replied to Bolsonaro: "You probably know who I am. I am campaigning against you."
Of course Bolsonaro knows who Marcelo D2 is! A legendary character in the Brazilian music scene and a political activist, he grew up in a favela and found his way out through rap music, pioneering a mix of hip hop and samba.
On July 6th, Marcelo D2 will share his songs at Cruïlla Talks and Òscar Broc will interview him, covering a number of topics including populism in politics today.
