Feijão de Bandido came together in São Paulo in the late 1990s, with Rodrigo Brandão on vocals and guitar, Marcelo D2 handling vocals and lyrics, and DJ Hum on turntables. Their sound mixed samba, rap, and funk, sometimes pulling in reggae and rock elements. They wrote about poverty, injustice, and police brutality, giving voice to the struggles of the urban poor.
Their song 'Feijão de Bandido' came out in 1998 and caught on quickly. The lyrics described daily life in the favelas over a catchy, danceable beat, making it a regular track in Brazilian nightclubs and street parties.
