Background notes
Archive material and source history
Matos Rap came out of Rio de Janeiro with a sound that mixed hip-hop, reggae, and Brazilian rhythms. Their debut album 'Contos e Crônicas da Selva de Cimento' arrived in 2000, and its track 'Herói Anônimo' became a kind of anthem for them. They followed it with albums like 'Em Verso e Prosa' in 2004 and 'Nação Hip Hop' in 2008.
The group's lyrics often dealt with social issues and the realities of life in the favelas, which sometimes put them at odds with critics. The core members included MC Leonardo, MC Nego Blue, DJ Will, and MC Rappin' Hood. Their music had a straightforward, grounded quality that connected with listeners who recognized the scenes they described.
