Mc Tubah Oficial

Mc Tubah Oficial came up from Rio de Janeiro's favelas, making Brazilian funk that connected with people in those neighborhoods. Their track 'Toma Vapo Vapo (part. Neguinho do Itr)' got attention early on, and they kept putting out songs like 'Bota Bota' and 'Famosinha 2' that worked on the same kind of raw, percussive energy.

Their music sometimes drew criticism from people who thought it glorified street life, and their shows occasionally had run-ins with police. They kept recording anyway, releasing tracks steadily through the late 2010s and early 2020s.

You can hear their sound on songs like 'Vou Botando', straightforward funk beats with chanted vocals, less about polished production and more about immediate rhythm. They built an audience that extended beyond their original neighborhoods, becoming one of the more recognizable names in that particular strand of Brazilian funk.
