Abstract

This text is configured as an essay where I approach elements of black protest music, especially the genre known as funk carioca, seeking to establish relationships with other historical approaches to black protest music in Brazil, mainly those produced during the years of lead of the Brazilian military dictatorship. The methodology used for the construction of this text was the bibliographic review and the analysis of different songs, considered as protest music, in particular, Rap da Felicidade (CIDINHO; DOCA, 2007) and Rap do Silva (MC Marcinho, 2007), which were structured as a starting point for reflective processes.
