Funk ousadia

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Funk ousadia,[a] also referred to as funk picante,[b] is a subgenre of the wider Brazilian funk scene, originating around 2013 in the city of São Paulo as an offshoot of funk ostentação.[1] Its lyrical matter is based upon erotic-themed songs with double entendres and humorous puns.

Description

[edit]

The genre has been called by several media outlets the successor of funk ostentação, which was beginning to decline in popularity by 2013–14.[2] The presence of humor in the songs differentiate this genre from songs by Mr. Catra and MC Magrinho, which have a clearer and more evident sex appeal.[3]

Some of the genre's principal exponents are MC Pikachu, MC 2K, MC Bin Laden, MC Pedrinho and MC Brinquedo.[4]
