Sertanejo Universitario

Sertanejo universitario is a subgenre of Brazilian music that emerged in the 1990s and gained widespread popularity in the 2010s.

Vocals are typically heartfelt and emotive, with lyrics focusing on love, relationships, and everyday life. Rooted in the rural traditions of sertanejo music, universitario added a youthful, urban twist, appealing to a new generation of listeners.
