Background notes
Archive material and source history
João da Preta formed in 2014 with four musicians from Rio de Janeiro: João Cavalcanti on vocals, Pedro Mamede on guitar, Bruno Morais on bass, and Guilherme Fernandes on drums. Cavalcanti wrote most of their lyrics, which often dealt with social issues and personal relationships.
Their music mixed Brazilian rhythms like samba and bossa nova with pop and rock elements. They released their self-titled debut album in 2015, followed by records like "O Amor Maior" in 2017 and "Milagres" in 2022. One of their better-known songs is "Amor Maior."
Some of their work drew attention for addressing sensitive topics. The song "Eu Não Sou Gay" sparked discussion about homophobia, though the band generally kept playing and recording through those conversations.
