Background notes
Archive material and source history
Skills Boy formed in Rio de Janeiro in the late 2000s, a group of musicians who came together around MC Rogerinho. Their sound pulled from funk carioca, hip-hop, and pop, which gave them a particular energy on the streets where they started.
Some critics objected to its lyrics, but it connected with a wide audience and became their signature track. Another song, "Ninguém," also found its way into their setlists around that time.
Their debut album, A Arte do Crime, came out in 2010 and mixed those funk beats with lyrics that touched on social issues. The group's core included MC Rogerinho and MC Renan on vocals, with Phellipe Costa handling production. They worked with other Brazilian artists like Lexa and Ludmilla, though the specifics of those collaborations aren't well-documented.
