Benito di Paula — Dónde escucharlo en la radio

Uday Vellozo, with stage name of Benito di Paula (born November 28, 1941), is a Brazilian singer-songwriter, composer, pianist and writer. He is known for his characteristic samba that started when he was young and sang in hotels and nightclubs in Rio de Janeiro, where he did not play a specific genre. Di Paula was invited by a friend to play in Santos, where he led his career in the State of São Paulo.

He settled down and raised a family in São Paulo, where he developed his career, becoming the great symbol of Samba Paulista. Between the 70s and 80s he achieved great fame, having sold 50 million records until today, being the 5th largest record seller in Brazil. In addition to Brazil, Di Paula sold records in other countries, recorded in languages such as Spanish, French, Italian, Finnish, German and others, with a total of 4 million records sold in Europe. He has more than 35 recorded LPs, with an important part of his work being re-released on CD, due to his great success.
