Editor's note

Mr Catra, the straightforward voice of Rio funk

A charismatic figure from Catumbi who shaped Brazilian funk with direct lyrics about everyday life.

For the essence of Mr Catra, start with 'Adultério' from his Furacão 2000 days and then check out 'Luxúria e Poder' from his solo work. Both show his direct approach to storytelling.

Mr Catra's music gave voice to working-class realities in Rio de Janeiro with unvarnished honesty. Songs like 'Luxúria e Poder' and 'Adultério' from his early days with Furacão 2000 tackled relationships and neighborhood life without sugarcoating. His approach remained consistent through later tracks like 'Que Rabão' with Anitta, keeping him relevant as the funk scene evolved.

He emerged from the Catumbi neighborhood in the 1990s as part of Furacão 2000, whose 1994 album 'Funk Brasil' introduced his style. Over the years he released numerous albums and collaborated with artists like MC Marcinho and Bonde do Tigrão, maintaining a steady presence in the genre.
