Abstract

This article is about a fraction of the current Brazilian popular music scene, comparing artists whose output began in the 1960's and continue releasing original material - Chico Buarque and Caetano Veloso - to artists whose early works were recently released - Siba, Apanhador Só and Juçara Marçal. In this comparison, this text aims to identify some changes in the Chico's and Caetano's output and to trace aesthetic similarities between the more recent songwriters. From this discussion, one may glimpse the effects of the development of the culture industry on Brazilian popular song.
