From Wikipedia, the free Encyclopedia Cazuza (April 4, 1958 - July 7, 1990) was a bisexual Brazilian composer, singer and poet.
Born Agenor de Araújo Miranda in Rio de Janeiro, he started as singer in the Brazilian rock band "Barão Vermelho". In 1989 he admited for the first time that he had AIDS and released his last album: Burguesia. At that time he had left Barão Vermelho to follow a solo career, mainly because of political differences with other band members. He died in Rio de Janeiro in 1990 at the age of 32 due to AIDS related illness.
In 2004 a biopic film directed by Sandra Werneck called Cazuza - O Tempo Não Pára was released.
