Background notes
Archive material and source history
MC Yuri came up in Complexo do Alemão, a favela in Rio de Janeiro. He found his way into Brazilian funk and put out his breakout single "Vem no Beat do Empurra Empurra" in 2013. The track's beat and his dance moves caught on across Brazil.
His music drew criticism for lyrics some saw as promoting violence or misogyny. Yuri said he was just reflecting life in the favelas. He kept releasing songs like "Oh Yasmin" and "Vai Tomando Foguenta," and worked with other funk artists including MC Lan and MC Neguinho do ITR on tracks like "Bebe Whisk e Fuma Skunk."
He had a crew called Bonde do Yuri with DJ Kalunga and others. The sound they made together helped push Brazilian funk in new directions.
