Editor's note

MC Daleste, a São Paulo funk voice cut short

His raw neighborhood anthems like 'Mina de Vermelho' defined a moment in Brazilian funk before his 2013 death.

For his sound, try 'Mina de Vermelho' first. 'Apologia' and 'Em Teu Olhar' show what was still forming when it stopped.

Daleste's music captured São Paulo's funk scene at street level. 'Mina de Vermelho' became a breakout hit around 2006 with its raw energy, connecting directly with listeners in the city's neighborhoods. Songs like 'Relaxe Na Maconha' and 'Carro da Maconha' show the unfiltered style that kept his voice in rotation.

He came up in São Paulo's funk scene, working with figures like DJ Tchaka and Mr. Catra. Tracks like 'Mais Amor, Menos Recalque' and 'Angra dos Reis' maintained his presence through the late 2000s. He was shot and killed outside a nightclub in July 2013, cutting short a run that was just beginning to reach beyond local circuits.
