Biography
Black Alien, a key figure in Brazil's hip-hop scene in the 1990s, gained recognition as part of groups like SpeedFreaks and Planet Hemp before releasing his influential solo album 'Babylon By Gus Vol.1' in 2004. Growing up in Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro, Gustavo de Almeida Ribero found his passion for hip-hop and skateboarding, forming SpeedFreaks with Claudio 'Speed' Marcio in 1991. Their unique blend of hip-hop, funk, punk, and samba left a lasting impact on the underground music scene in Sao Paolo and Rio, with their album 'De Macaco' being particularly influential. Black Alien later went solo, captivating a new generation of hip-hop fans with 'Babylon By Gus Vol.1' and eventually overcoming addiction to release 'Babylon By Gus - Vol. II: No Príncipio Era O Verbo' in 2015, showcasing a more soulful and mature sound.
After making waves with groups like SpeedFreaks and Planet Hemp, Black Alien emerged as a solo artist with the release of 'Babylon By Gus Vol.1' in 2004, solidifying his status as a pioneering force in Brazilian hip-hop. From his upbringing in Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro, to his collaborations with Speed and eventual solo career, Black Alien's journey through addiction and recovery has been reflected in his music, with his melodic flow remaining as captivating as ever. His evolution as an artist is evident in his latest single 'Que Nem O Meu Cachorro,' released in 2019, where he celebrates his sobriety and showcases a newfound depth and wisdom in his music as he continues to push boundaries in the Brazilian hip-hop scene.

Artist Affinity estimates how strongly an artist’s audience overlaps with interest in specific brands, products, and categories. It is derived from aggregated social and behavioral signals—who fans follow, save, click, and engage with—normalized across platforms. Higher affinity suggests better partnership fit and higher likelihood that fans will respond positively to branded content or offers. Use it to shortlist natural brand partners and product concepts that feel authentic to the audience. Combine affinity with Connection Strength (ER) and reach to balance fit with impact. Treat affinity as directional—validate with creative tests and small pilots before scaling.
ER = (likes + comments + shares) ÷ audience per post
≥ 3.0% = Very Strong
2.0–2.99% = Strong
1.0–1.99% = Moderate
< 1.0% = Low
How to read it: Higher ER means a tighter, more responsive fan connection.
Pair ER with reach (views/followers) to gauge both intensity and scale. Spikes can occur during
viral moments—use 30–90 day averages for steadier context.
