Okay, so now that I listen to all of Deep Cut's music I have a few notes on Big Man being Brasilian.
First of all, you can see it more clearly on Anarchy Poisons (Boar Mix) but most of the songs he's in seem to have at least subtle hints of it
Second of all, and I need yall to know Im born and raised Brasilian, it all feels cheap and incredible rude.
Honestly, I would have probably have loved a Brasilian character, but Big Man just isn't one. His music takes inspiration from some popular beats and one song everyone knows from the last century. Literally!! Most modern songs sound nothing like that
And all sounds added to his music feel incredibly rude because they're so removed from context with clearly no research gone into it. Like, the whistle noise, I can very easily tell you how it connects to the struggle of poverty and of marginalized people in Brasil historically, even tho it was pretty wide spread for a while
Adding in Big Man's design, which draws NO inspiration from any part of Brasilian culture, not from native people's or from modern culture (manta rays are not a special animal to Brasil, and no culture here uses masks like that and specially no one uses fucking metal)
It all feels incredible rude from my perspective, like they didn't bother to do any research

Fucking Boar Mix when Boars are not native to Brasil and we have a fucking invasive Boar problem in the south???)#(extra thought. Big Man's music also takes so much inspiration from that one song that it feels like they just copy and pasted it)
