SSV

SSV came together in Jardim Pantanal, a neighborhood in São Paulo. The group's name stands for Saúde, Sexo e Violência, and their music reflects the everyday realities of working-class Brazil. MC GW handles the vocals while DJ ZN, DJ Vasco, and DJ Neko create the beats and handle production.

Their 2013 track "Bonde do Patrão" became their breakout hit, capturing the grind of factory life with a defiant energy. Other songs like "Desabafo" and "Meu Protesto" continue in that vein, addressing social and economic issues with direct, street-level perspective.

SSV's lyrics have sometimes drawn criticism for their blunt treatment of violence, poverty, and sexuality. This has led to occasional performance bans and debates about what their music represents. They keep recording regardless, with songs like "Encaixe Perfeito" and "Meu Bonde" maintaining their connection to São Paulo's neighborhoods.
