João Bosco has been honored as the Best MPB (Música Popular Brasileira) Artist at the 2025 Prêmio da Música Brasileira (PMB)
PMB, one of Brazil’s most prestigious music awards. Known for his intricate guitar work, poetic lyrics, and genre-blending compositions, Bosco remains a towering figure in Brazilian music. His career spans over five decades, during which he has consistently pushed the boundaries of MPB, incorporating elements of samba, jazz, and bossa nova into his work.
This latest recognition at the PMB celebrates not only João Bosco’s enduring artistry but also his continued relevance in shaping the soundscape of Brazilian popular music. Whether performing solo or in collaboration, his music continues to resonate deeply with audiences both in Brazil and around the world.
