about

"This is my heartfelt tribute to the assassinated, Brazilian activist, Marielle Franco," declares Keith. " Who was taken from us in April of 2018 because she was politically and socially fighting for the equal rights of poor people of all colors in the favelas of Brazil.
I was possessed to write and record this song in just a few days of none stop musical venting. I hope I've done the inspiration justice. But I will do other mixes if inspired. I hope her loved ones and the people of Brazil hear it and appreciate my efforts."
The history:
1526 the first Portuguese ship landed in Brazil with enslaved people from Africa. "500 yrs and my people still fighting" for true freedom. "Marielle" my song dedicated to Marielle Franco is completed and I'm pleased. #VivaMarielleFranco - Spread the music and live for justice for ALL!
