Dengaz Essentials
Playlist - 13 Songs
Hailing from the coastal vacation hot spot of Cascais, Portuguese rapper/rocker Dengaz made his name through a series of daring singles drawing equally from soul-drenched reggae and American hip-hop. With his raw vocal style made up of equal parts husky declamations and burnt-edged R&B crooning, Dengaz's output remains thrillingly international—party cuts stuffed with hot dancehall synthesisers, Dirty South digital beats and plenty of hard rock attitude. And don't overlook his smooth(er) side, when his brawny vocals get downright cozy amid pop-friendly choruses and tons of sweet talk.
