Jojo Maronttinni is a Brazilian pop-funk band that gained attention with their 2018 track 'Que Tiro Foi Esse.' The song's catchy rhythm and straightforward lyrics connected with listeners, helping the group find an audience beyond their local scene. They followed it with other tracks like 'Pega Pega' and 'Acordei Gostosa,' maintaining a similar upbeat, danceable style.
The band formed around lead vocalist Jojo Toddynho and rapper MC Jhowzinho, later adding musician Lelê JP and DJ Batata. Their earlier single 'Sentada Diferente' came out in 2016, but it was the collaboration on 'Que Tiro Foi Esse' that brought wider recognition. The group's music often features playful, conversational lyrics over funk and pisadinha rhythms.
While their 2020 song 'Arrasou Viado' faced some plagiarism discussion, the band continued releasing material. Their recordings include straightforward party tracks and collaborations with other Brazilian artists like ImaginaSamba and Márcia Fellipe. The music stays grounded in the pop-funk sounds popular in Rio de Janeiro, where the members started out.
