DIPLO ROUBOU PENDRIVE DE MU450

The speaker recalls a personal experience during a carnival event in Rio de Janeiro in 2018, where they performed music and encountered various DJs, including Diplo. Despite getting warnings from friends about the scene in Rio, the speaker embraced the environment and enjoyed performing. However, they later discovered their pen drive with important music tracks had gone missing, which they presumed was stolen during the festivities. They humorously recounted how they created a mashup and inadvertently received attention in the DJ community, only to find out that another prominent DJ had played their track without giving credit. The speaker expresses frustration about cultural appropriation by outsiders, particularly in the music scene, highlighting how they feel exploited by international artists who take inspiration from Brazilian culture without proper acknowledgment. They emphasize the importance of recognizing the origins and contributions of local artists in the global music landscape.
