Background notes
Archive material and source history
Billy Martins came out of Rio de Janeiro in the late 1990s, a band with William de Carvalho on vocals, Paulo César on guitar, Eduardo Rodrigues on bass, and Rodrigo Martins on drums. Their 2001 debut album 'Rap de Polícia' included the track 'Rap de Polícia - Cade Você Ladrão,' which became known for its direct lyrics about police conduct.
That song connected with listeners in Brazil, and the band kept making music that addressed social themes. They put out albums like 'Nação Zumbi' in 2002, 'África Brasil' in 2005, and 'Revolução do Oprimido' in 2011, working within hip-hop and rap styles while staying focused on their message.
