Who is Lobão?
João Luiz Woerdenbag Filho, popularly known as Lobão, is a Brazilian singer-songwriter, composer, multi-instrumentalist, writer, publisher and media personality. Lobão is perhaps best known for his hits "Me Chama" and "Vida Louca Vida" as well as seminal works Vida Bandida and A Vida É Doce.
Lobão has a reputation in Brazil for having little inhibition in expressing his opinions bluntly and publicly criticising fellow musicians, which led to a notable number of controversies and enmities.
His best-known recent controversy is a break-up with the record industry. Claiming that all major labels are conspiring to deceive their own artists, he set an independent distribution plan to sell music CDs on newsstands and the Internet.
Thus far, this endeavor has been very successful: his recent albums sold well and were critically acclaimed. He also created a magazine, Outracoisa, which comes bundled with a music CD of independent artists.
