About the album:
Encanto is a vibrant and contemporary album from legendary Brazilian musician Sérgio Mendes, blending classic bossa nova rhythms with modern pop and R&B influences. Released in 2008, the album reunites Mendes with will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas, continuing the creative partnership that revived global interest in Brazilian fusion. Featuring guest performances from Fergie, Juanes, Ledisi, and Natalie Cole, Encanto is a lively mix of smooth jazz grooves, tropical percussion, and lush vocal harmonies. The result is a joyful, cross-generational collection that celebrates Brazil's musical spirit with a contemporary edge.
