On July 15th, my friends at Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment will release RIO 2 on 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray, and DVD (it’s out now on iTunes). The film is sort of a “road trip” story in which Blu (voiced by Jesse Eisenberg) and his family take flight after his wife Jewel (voice of Anne Hathaway) decides that their children should explore the world. In the spirit of the film, there’s a RIO 2 Summer Party Tour hitting select cities over the next two weeks (dates here), and the 2014 #RockFatherTour is hitting the road once more, too! But this time, we’re actually on the road (as opposed to the air). While we get started on that end, Fox and I are giving all of you a chance to WIN the RIO 2 Blu-ray Combo Pack, and since THE ROCK FATHER has a foundation built on music… we’re going to take a quick look at some of the “Musical Messages” of RIO 2…

The Music of RIO 2:
The biggest party of the summer is officially on its way! Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment takes you deep into the Brazilian Amazon Rainforest for the most fun you’ll have all summer, as RIO 2 debuts on 3D Blu-ray, Blu-ray and DVD July 15.The RIO 2 Blu-ray™ and DVD brings everything you loved from the first Rio, but with even more laughs, excitement and music! Not only will kids get nearly an hour and a half of bonus features on the RIO 2 Blu-ray™, but they’ll also get their groove on with two downloadable bonus songs from the RIO 2 soundtrack: “I Will Survive” and “Poisonous Love,” both performed by Gabi (Kristin Chenoweth) and Nigel (Jemaine Clement). For even more fun, every Blu-ray™ comes with 15 exclusive levels for Angry Birds Rio™ and Music Machine Sing-Along and Dance-Along songs for a whole family party! There’s also Janelle Monáe’s “What is Love” lyric video, a deleted scene, character auditions and much more! Here’s five of the messages that can be found in the music of the RIO 2 soundtrack.
“What’s a song if you can’t hear it too? Can’t imagine dancing without you.” (What Is Love?)
“You’ve got to stand tall, even when you’re small. You’ve got to sing loud, when they tell you not to talk. You need to believe that you were born to be free. You’ve got to let go of all your fear, cuz’ it’s a Jungle Out Here” (It’s A Jungle Out Here)
“If you try to keep me down I’ll just come back stronger If you try to cut me short I’ll just come back longer If you beat me at ping pong I’ll just play ping pong-er Give me my throne, I am ready to thrive one thing I know….I will survive!” (I Will Survive)
“Let’s celebrate, for we are beautiful creatures. Come spread your wings, dance and sing songs about freedom.” (Beautiful Creatures)
“Vou levar alegria. Junto carrego o amor. Dia de festa. Salve a floresta!” (Fave de Mel)
Which translates to: “I come bringing joy. Along, I come carrying love. Party day. Save the forest.”
