They've released four studio albums: "Cavalo Preto" in 2011, "Pra Que Tanta Ganância" in 2014, "Nosso Samba É Guerreiro" in 2017, and "Roda Viva" in 2021.
Their music often addresses social themes, with songs like "Para Que Tanta Ganância" criticizing corruption and inequality.

They've collaborated with artists including Chico Buarque, Elza Soares, and Seu Jorge.
