Background notes
Archive material and source history
Marterap formed in 1998 in Lisbon with members MCK, Sam the Kid, and Cruzfader. They started as teenagers sharing an interest in hip-hop and the experiences of young Portuguese immigrants. Their debut album 'Com o Pé Direito' came out in 2001 and connected with Portuguese youth through its raw energy and socially conscious lyrics.
They followed with albums in 2004, 2010, and 2021, showing a shift from their early rebellious work toward more introspective themes. One of their songs is 'Um Pouco Sobre Nós.' MCK handled rhymes and stage presence, Sam the Kid wrote personal lyrics, and Cruzfader worked as DJ and producer.
The group's music remained grounded in Portuguese hip-hop without chasing dramatic commercial narratives.
