100Pressa Records came out of Rio de Janeiro with a sound that caught on quickly. Their single "Não Me Esqueça" became a hit in Brazil, a ballad that connected with listeners. The group includes MC Cabelinho, MC Hariel, and DJ 2F, who mix Brazilian rhythms with hip-hop.
Some of their lyrics about street life have drawn criticism, with accusations that they glorify violence. The members have said they're just reflecting what they've seen growing up in tough neighborhoods. They've also faced rumors about drug use and gang ties, which they've denied while acknowledging the difficult environments they came from.
Beyond "Não Me Esqueça," they've put out other tracks like "Coração Gelado" and worked on collaborative projects like "Poesia Acústica 13." Their music speaks to a particular experience in Brazil, resonating with listeners who recognize those realities.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
