Background notes
Archive material and source history
Dona Imperatriz formed in Rio de Janeiro in 2011 as a collective of women making baile funk, a genre typically dominated by men. The group was led by singer Raquel da Silva. Their 2012 single "Alisar Pra Quê?" became a hit, celebrating black beauty and questioning pressure to meet Eurocentric standards.
Their music takes baile funk rhythms and mixes in pop, hip-hop, and soul elements. The lyrics often tackle feminist themes like gender equality and sexual freedom. Another track, "Fênix," appears among their top songs.
The group has faced criticism from conservative circles for their outspoken lyrics, but they've continued putting out albums like Cadê a Chave? (2014) and Brasil do Funk (2020).
