Mc Mascote

Mc Mascote is a Brazilian funk duo from São Paulo, made up of Marcelinho on vocals and Sidney handling production. They first gained wider attention in 2015 with the single "Hoje Deu Sol," which became a summer hit in Brazil. The song's catchy rhythm and straightforward lyrics connected with listeners, helping establish their presence in the scene.

Their music often pulls from funk, pagode, and hip-hop, though they've also worked with elements of pop and electronic music at times. They've recorded with other MCs, DJs, and producers from Brazil and elsewhere, which has kept their sound varied. While some of their lyrics have drawn criticism for touching on subjects considered taboo, they've maintained a steady output of singles and albums.
