Biography

Skank was formed in Belo Horizonte MG in 1991; they became one of the most popular bands in Brazil in the '90s.

5.0 out of 5 stars Love it!!!, December 29, 2006
This album marked my teen years. Every where I went they would play Garota Nacional and you couldn't get tired of it. It such a cool song...the video kinda sucks, but the song is just great.

5.0 out of 5 stars The greastest album of all time!, April 2, 1999
By A Customer
This album rocks. I didn't think that they could outdo themselves from Calango but they did. This is the perfect mix of reggae, ska and the Brasilian mix.
