Oriente is a Brazilian group hailing from Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, known for their eclectic fusion of hip-hop with elements of samba, reggae, and Brazilian popular music (MPB). Formed in 2009, the group consists of rapper Chino, vocalist Nissin, beatboxer Geninho Beatbox, and violinist and bassist Nobru Black. Gaining recognition for their evocative lyrics and unique instrumentation, Oriente's music often explores themes of love, social issues, and the day-to-day life of Brazilian youth, delivering a powerful narrative of their cultural experience.

The group has cultivated a strong following with their engaging and lyrical storytelling, accompanied by classic melodies and urban beats. Some of their notable works include the reflective "O Vagabundo e a Dama," the melodic "Praia do Rosa," and the socially conscious "Brasil Colônia," which features collaborations with other prominent names in the Brazilian hip-hop scene. Their acoustic ventures provide a stripped-down look into their artistic range, showcasing their musical versatility and resonating with audiences across Brazil. Oriente continues to innovate within their genre, as reflected in recent releases like "Luz da Lua" and "Azulejo," and their live performances are fervently celebrated for their energy and authenticity.
