Barely a teenager, Freitas learned to entertain through the art of hip-hop and throughout the years the flexibility of his talent allowed him to flow with changing vibes of the music industry. Once a break-dancer, then the front man of the infamous group Quatro Plus, a producer, a writer, a singer, engineer and now he is the owner of GhettoZouk Music, a label created by Nelson Freitas with artists as Chelsy Shantel & William araujo. With his roots connected to the Cape Verde islands and his passion for the hip-hop culture inspired Freitas to take on a challenge to change the contemporary sound of the Cape Verdean music.
In 1997 the compilation CD of “MOBASS Presents” was released featuring the track, “Hoje em Dia” (Now a Days), which officially launched Quatro Plus (formally known as Quatro) in the market. As one of the lead singers of the group, Quatro Plus went on to release three successful albums “4-Voz” (Four Voices) in 1998, “Bem Conche” (Get to Know Us) in 2002 and “Ultima Viagem” (Last Voyage) in 2005.
In almost a decade, Freitas has earned what’s rightfully his as he is of the most admired and respected producers, singers and writers in the Cape Verdean as well as the zouk music industry. With a blend of Cape Verdean Kriol and English lyrics, a twist of R&B and hip-hop incorporated with zouk and traditional Cape Verdean music.With al these ingredients Nelson made his solo album called “ Magic “ In October 2006.The album sold over 25.000 copies world wide.
With new creative input and even more experience the second album “ My life “ is a fact. The album promises to bring yet another dose of creativity and talent as the 12 track album aims to live-up to his previous album “ magic “ or even surpass it. featuring artists on the album will be William Araujo, Mc Knowledje, Laisa Sanches & Anselmo Ralph.

Na nha caza tudo sozinho
Ta pensá o que fazê
N'liga nhas boys
Ma ninguem atendê
N'decidi bah pa net
Conversa fazê kel chat
N'encontrá um sexy girl
Ohoh

Bu convidam pam passá ês notê má bu
Ohoh

Eii flor amor bem dzen bu nome
Dipôs bu podê dan bu numero di tilifone
Se bu dam bu morada
N'ta ba visitob na bu kaza
E dipôs ta oh girl

The only one in ghetto zouk
Princepe kês ta tchmom
N'gajo tem más letras do ki alfabeto
(bu tem un amjer?)
Nada pôs na branco e preto (so)
Bu podê ficá tranquilo má mi girl
N'ta mora pertinho dali girl
Mas so bu bai é
Pao pao queijo queijo
Oh senao 1 2 3 macaquinho chinês
Ohoh

The song "Na Bô Kaza" by Nelson Freitas is about a man who is feeling content and relaxed in his home. He tries to call his friends, but nobody answers. So, he decides to go online and chat.

The lyrics are flirty and suggestive, as he tries to charm her with compliments and promises of a good time.
As the song progresses, the man and the woman express their attraction towards each other, and he reveals that he lives close to her place. He asks for her name and phone number, and she gives it to him, inviting him over to her place as well. The chorus repeats the message that they both want the same thing and are looking for a casual encounter.
Overall, the song's lyrics are about a man looking to have a good time and enjoy the company of a woman. It's a light-hearted, playful song that exudes a feeling of fun and excitement.
