220V is a Portuguese hip-hop duo from Porto, formed in the mid-2000s. The name stands for "dois vinhos e vinte," which translates to "two wines and twenty." The group consists of Ace and Suave, who both write lyrics and handle vocals.
Their music mixes hip-hop and trap with Portuguese sounds, and they often address social issues and urban life in their lyrics. Songs like "Imagina Um Trap do Chamber" and "Tipo Yoru" show their style, which sometimes blends Portuguese and English. They've released albums including "Imagina Um Trap do Chamber" in 2016, followed by "Anjos Caídos" in 2017 and "Cidade Cinza" in 2018.
Some of their explicit content has drawn criticism, but they've kept making music that speaks to their experiences. Their work has found an audience in Portugal's underground scene, with tracks like "Imagina Um Trap da Jett" and "Tipo Raze" reflecting their raw approach.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
