Black Alien

Black Alien, whose real name is Gustavo de Almeida Ribeiro, is a heavyweight of the Brazilian hip-hop scene known for his distinctive voice and versatile flow. Emerging in the late 1990s, he initially garnered fame as one of the founders of the influential rap group Planet Hemp, alongside Marcelo D2. After leaving the group to pursue a solo career, Black Alien released his debut album "Babylon by Gus Vol. I: O Ano do Macaco" in 2004, which was met with critical acclaim, solidifying his reputation as a solo artist.

Over the years, Black Alien has developed a loyal fan base captivated by his lyrical depth, tackling themes like social issues, personal struggles, and introspection. His style is a fusion of rap with reggae, funk, and other genres, which is evident in his long-awaited sophomore album "Babylon by Gus Vol. II: No Princípio Era o Verbo," released in 2015. Continuing to evolve as an artist, Black Alien's recent work, including tracks like "NÃO VAMOS DESISTIR" and "O RITMO E A RAIVA," showcases his relentless energy and commitment to pushing the boundaries of hip-hop. "Abaixo de Zero: Hello Hell," released in 2019, was another testament to his artistry - a vivid storytelling excursion set against the backdrop of beats that draw listeners into his unique sonic world.
