Snoop Lion's REINCARNATED will be screened at a documentary festival in São Paulo!
Understanding the passion and dedication for an art like music is not just any task.In-Edit, an international music documentary festival that begins this Friday (3), inSão Paulo, aims to help viewers delve deeper into this cultural manifestation.

The productions that make up the festival cover everything from the composition process of the BrazilianJards Macalé, portrayed in"Jards", byEryk Rocha, to the creation of the first rock festival in Angola, in"Death Metal Angola", byJeremy Xido.

REINCARNATED

For the reggae crowd, one of the most popular films of the rhythm in recent times portrays the transition from the controversialSnoop DoggtoSnoop Lion, in which he himself calls a"Reincarnação", or rather, the transition of his"vida loka"from rapper to a deep spiritual dive into Rastafarianism. Many liked it, others doubted it and others even hated it, in other words, everything is normal when it comes to the controversial Snoop.
