Archive material and source history
Zé Pinguelo was a Brazilian band that formed in Rio de Janeiro in the early 1990s. Their lineup included Zé Pinguelo on vocals and guitar, Bubu on bass, Carlinhos on drums, and Puleiro on percussion. They put out a few albums in the 1990s, starting with their self-titled debut in 1994.
Their most recognizable track is "O Peido da Doida," which came out in 1994. The song's lyrics, about a woman who farts uncontrollably, got them attention for being both catchy and crude. Another song, "Eu Não Falo Americano," shows their tendency toward irreverent humor.
Their music mixed samba, funk, and rock in a way that felt loose and street-level. The band faced some criticism for their lyrical content, but they kept making music that leaned into that style. They released albums like Na Pancada do Samba in 1996 and Funk de Rua in 1998 before putting out O Samba do Zé in 2001.
