Gabriel O Pensador and Ithaka "Who's The Enemy?" (remastered, 15th anniversary release)


Friends since 1993, the Ithaka Darin Pappas and Gabriel O Pensador first crossed paths in Lisbon, Portugal on a photoshoot for Super Som magazine (Editora Abril) at the time of Gabriel's first tor of Europe coinciding with his #1 Brazilian hit, Tô Feliz (Matei o Presidente). Ithaka ( a former photographer of N.W.A, in Los Angeles) made pictures of nineteen year old Gabriel in a wheel chair, he had broken his leg a few days before playing soccer. The unusual images of the young rap star in a full leg cast ended up that edition of the magazine's foldout poster.

Both surfers, The two became friends. Ithaka also began making music - and It was years later after he had visited Gabriel o Pensador and his family in Brazil, that Gabriel suggested to him the idea of recording an album there in Rio de Janeiro A couple of years later, after an introduction to a local producer was made, a new fifteen-track record finally began to materialize including their hip hop peace duet, Who's The Enemy?
