Xavier e Marcel were a Brazilian duo known for their 2000s pop songs about friendship and relationships. Their track "Mais Que Amizade" became particularly popular, giving its name to their debut album. They also recorded "Não Deixe Ele Te Amar."
Their music mixed pop with Brazilian rhythms like samba and bossa nova. The pair faced some public scrutiny over their personal relationship, with tabloids speculating about it and a 2010 argument video causing media attention. They maintained their friendship continued despite these pressures.
After their time as a duo, both members worked on solo projects but occasionally performed together again. Their songs, especially those about friendship, kept finding listeners in Brazil.
