In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Hearing “Não Sabe Nadar” by Black Company as a kid blew my mind. I memorized it word for word. That was the moment I knew I wanted to rap — it felt like home. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Boss AC, Mandachuva Sam The Kid, Pratica(Mente) Valete, Educação Visual Educação Visual by Valete shaped how I think about writing bars. Pratica(mente) by Sam The Kid showed me how to mix soul with lyricism. Mandachuva by Boss AC was the album that made me pick up a pen.

Regula)” “Qualquer Boda” is special because I got to rap with Regula, my childhood idol. We made it on Christmas night — it marked the start of everything.
