Background notes
Archive material and source history
MC Nego da 3 was born Uanderson Costa Santos in São Paulo. His stage name translates to "Black Businessman from District 3," nodding to his neighborhood roots. In 2013, his debut album "Sonha Que Sonha Molecote" took off, with the title track becoming a defiant anthem about chasing dreams against the odds.
His music often dealt with street life, poverty, and resilience in plain language. Songs like "Meiota Preta" and "Vilão e a Cinderela" carried that raw, unfiltered tone. He worked with producers and fellow MCs like MC Bolinho and DJ Nori, and later collaborated with artists including Anitta and Emicida.
Nego faced police incidents and public scrutiny over drug accusations, which he addressed through his lyrics. He kept recording through it, putting out albums and mixtapes that mixed hard funk beats with more melodic tracks. His sound found listeners in marginalized communities who recognized the stories he was telling.
