Pimentas is a Brazilian funk band from Rio de Janeiro. Their song 'Quem É Ela' became something of an anthem, though the existing history doesn't specify exactly when or how that happened. The band's original lineup included Gabriela do Recife on vocals, Alana Ananias on bass, Léo Ferreira on guitar, and Tavares Cavalcanti on drums.
They released their debut album, also called 'Quem É Ela,' in 2019. The title track got some attention, though the details about it going viral or reaching audiences beyond Brazil feel a bit promotional. Other songs in their catalog include 'Amigos Pela Fé,' 'Anjos,' and 'Batei Palma.'
Some of their lyrics addressed social themes, which led to some criticism. The existing history mentions a song called 'Bumbum de Ouro' that was part of this, though it's not in the official top songs list. They put out more music after the debut, including singles like 'Treme Terra' in 2021 and 'Não Sou Fraca Não' in 2022.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
