Sei (album)
Sei ("I know") is the seventh album by Brazilian band Nando Reis e os Infernais. It was recorded in Seattle, Washington, with the help of producer Jack Endino, who had already produced four studio albums for Titãs, Nando Reis' ex-band. According to Nando, Endino is the "right guy" to record Os Infernais' sound.
It was nominated for the Latin Grammy Awards of 2013 in the Best Brazilian Rock Album category.
Background and recording
Sei is Reis' first independent album, after Universal Music Group refused to renew the deal they had with Reis. According to him, the process of going indie is irreversible. Also, he stated:
Reis also stated he didn't understand the mechanics of the recording companies, "such as the profit margin, with albums being sold for R$30,00 (US$15,00) and almost an year later they cost R$5,00."
According to Nando, "Lamento Realengo" was inspired by a apparently pirate DVD he bought, in which Bob Marley and The Wailers were practicing in 1973. "I got crazy [watching the DVD]. This ended in 'Lamento Realengo', which is half samba, half reggae. I even recorded with a nylon acoustic guitar, which I haven't played for some 15 years!"
Seiðr
Seiðr (sometimes anglicized as seidhr, seidh, seidr, seithr, seith, or seid) is an Old Norse term for a type of sorcery which was practiced in Norse society during the Late Scandinavian Iron Age. Connected with Norse religion, its origins are largely unknown, although it gradually eroded following the Christianization of Scandinavia. Accounts of seiðr later made it into sagas and other literary sources, while further evidence has been unearthed by archaeologists. Various scholars have debated the nature of seiðr, some arguing that it was shamanic in context, involving visionary journeys by its practitioners.
Seiðr practitioners were of both genders, although females are more widely attested, with such sorceresses being variously known as vǫlur, seiðkonur and vísendakona. There were also accounts of male practitioners, known as seiðmenn, but in practising magic they brought a social taboo, known as ergi, on to themselves, and were sometimes persecuted as a result. In many cases these magical practitioners would have had assistants to aid them in their rituals.

The Power
by: Snap![Foreign content]
I've got the power, hey, yeah, hey
Like the crack of the whip, I snap attack
Front to back in this thing called rap
Dig it like a shovel, rhyme Devil on a Heavenly level
Bang the bass, turn up the treble
Radical mind day and night all the time
Seven, fourteen, wise, divine
Maniac, brainiac, winning the game
I'm the lyrical Jesse James
Oh, yeah, yeah

Quality, I possess something, I'm fresh
When my voice goes through the rest
Of the microphone that I am holdin'
Copy written lyrics so they can't be stolen
If they are snap
Don't need the police to try to save them
Your voice will sink, so please, stay off my back
Or I will attack and you don't want that
