2ZDinizz is a Brazilian duo made up of brothers Felipe and Vinicius Ferreira, who go by the names 2Z and Dinizz respectively. They're from a modest neighborhood in Rio de Janeiro, where they started playing local venues. Felipe handles the songwriting and vocals, while Vinicius produces the music and plays multiple instruments.
Their sound pulls from hip-hop, samba, and pop, with lyrics that often touch on life in Brazil. In 2021, they broke through with the single "Maré (part. Lipe)", a track about an impoverished Rio community that became popular across the country. Other songs like "Kenner No Pé" and "Finin de Ouro" show their range within that style.
They've worked with other Brazilian artists including Lipe, Orochi, and Djonga. Some of their material has drawn criticism for its subject matter, but it's connected with many listeners who recognize the scenes and situations they describe.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
