SERGIO MENDES | Timeless

Sergio Mendes is one of the most enduring artists to hail from musically and culturally rich Brazil. Time and time again, Mendes has proven that creative innovation and musical accessibility needn't be mutually exclusive. Speaking of innovation and inclusiveness, if there's anyone knows how make music that will get a party started it's Black Eyed Peas's refreshingly eclectic mastermind/rapper/producer Will.i.am. 

Here, at Sergio's party, the list of invited guests is A-list all the way:  Will.i.am (as producer and performer), Black Eyed Peas, Q-Tip, Stevie Wonder, Jill Scott, John Legend, Erykah Badu, Justin Timberlake, Pharoahe Monch, Chali 2na, Black Thought (of The Roots), Marcelo D2, and others.

Melding Sergio Mendes's classic, infectious mix of Brazilian bossa nova and samba rhythms, jazz, and pop music with the fresh-as-tomorrow, modern hip-hop production flavour of will.i.am, this constantly grooving mix of classic and modern sounds is--in a word-- Timeless.
