Antônio Carlos Jobim (25 January 1927 – 8 December 1994) was the best-known exponent of bossa nova.
Explanation
Antonio Carlos Jobim
Will seldom be seen in a meme,
But though you may curse
He appears in light verse
Since his name fits the rhythmical scheme.

Artful Ways
Jobim always strove to express
His soul with a subtle finesse,
Using rhythmic refinement
In beguiling alignment
With a voice like a gentle caress.
