aqui no esforçado os sons gringos vem de todos os lugares. tem EUA, claro e sempre e muito. mas tem também França, Chile, Argentina, Portugal, Alemanha, Nigéria, tuaregs, Inglaterra, Colômbia, Togo, Geórgia, Egito, Irã, Paquistão, África do Sul, Turquia, Palestina, Dinamarca, Cuba, República Dominicana, Canadá, México, Camarões, Porto Rico, Haiti, Hungria, Montenegro e assim por diante.
importante destacar também que dessas 95 músicas, 4 tem participações fundamentais de brasileiros: o produtor português Branko (ex-Buraka Som Sistema) chamou o Baiana System; a argentina Nathy Peluso trouxe os vocais de Lua de Santana para uma espécie de funk cisplatino; o quarteto canadense BadBadNotGood mergulhou na sonoridade brasileira setentista com vocais de Tim Bernardes e arranjos do mestre Arthur Verocai; enquanto a iraniana Sevdaliza dividiu vocais de um dos hits do ano com a francesa Yseult e a brasileiríssima Pabllo Vittar. é muito som, minha gente.

e agora os discos gringos. foram, na verdade, 65 discos de 61 artistas, pois Donald Glover emplacou dois (Atavista e Bando Stone & The New World), BadBadNotGood veio com três EPs (Mid Spiral: Chaos, Mid Spiral: Order e Mid Spiral: Growth) e The Smile com um disco e outro de "sobras" do primeiro (Wall of Eyes e Cutouts). não deu pra separar esses aí...
ouvi bastante esses discos acima, mas gostaria de destacar outros que ouvi ainda mais. começando pelos instrumentais poderosos dos alemães Bacao Rhythm & Steel Band, dos Hermanos Gutierrez, do trio Janko Nilovic, JJ Whitefield & Igor Zhukovsky, do grandão Kamasi Washington, dos franceses Laurent Bardainne & Tigre d'Eau Douce, do mestre Mulatu Astatke, e dos ingleses Nubya Garcia e Shabaka Hutchings.
tem também os trabalhos de umas minas da pesada transitando entre rock e pop, country e latinidades. o que dizer do lindo trampo solo de Beth Gibbons (Portishead)? e o mergulho country de Beyonce? e a colombiana Kali Uchis produzindo hits sem parar? e a revelação do rap americano, a sensacional Doechii? e as roqueiras fantásticas Kim Deal, Kim Gordon e St. Vincent? só mina foda.
por último entre os destaques tem o excelente disco que o Kendrick Lamar lançou de surpresa agora no fim do ano, o novo do jovem Michael Kiwanuka (que acerta sempre) e a volta adubada de um dos preferidos da casa, o produtor francês Blundetto (dessa vez em parceria com o MC Pupajim).
