MC Nego Pet

MC Nego Pet is Márcio Felipe Ferreira, who started as a freestyle rapper in Rio de Janeiro's Rocinha favela. His 2018 single 'Beijão Daora' became a breakout hit, catching attention with its catchy melody and lyrics that felt familiar to listeners in similar neighborhoods.

He's released other tracks like 'Só Pra Brincar,' 'Meu Baile,' and 'Te Amo Ainda,' and has worked with other funk artists including MC Poze do Rodo and MC Kevinho. His music often gets described as a mix of funk, hip-hop, and pop, though the specifics of that blend come through more in the recordings than in any press-kit description.

Some of his lyrics have drawn criticism for references to drug use and violence, which he's said reflect real life in the favelas rather than an endorsement. The music keeps a steady rhythm section, with DJ Pequi handling the beats in his live setup.
