SUMMARY:

This research is dedicated to analyze the songs of rapper Rico Dalasam. Through a historiographical journey of Brazilian rap, we promote reflections on the relationships between rap, Brazilian culture, masculinities, and the other voices in rap that inhabit contemporaneity. Rap, as part of the hip-hop movement, is a musical genre that emerges with racial and social markings (TEPERMAN, 2015) and gained prominence in Brazil in the 1990s as part of black counterculture with remarkable cultural impacts (OLIVEIRA, 2015; 2020). Furthermore, there are criticisms of the rhythm from those who are marginalized within it (LI, 2019; SANTOS, 2016). Thus, we investigate Rico Dalasam, a gay rapper who is recognized as an exponent of LGBTQIAPN+ rap, and we dedicate ourselves to observing the other tensions he brings to the rap scene in contemporaneity, consequently to the hip-hop movement, as we understand that LGBTQIAPN+ rap has brought different gestures to the critical management of battle arenas that are so common in black sociability, which is rap (AZEVEDO; SILVA, 1999; SOUZA, 2011). We map, in Dalasam's poetry, four major gestures that we understand to be part of what he has produced so far: alliances, where we articulate his relationship with other people mentioned in his songs or musical collaborations; the body, where we investigate his performances; the wakabake, where his flow is analyzed as part of an aesthetic that goes beyond the meaning of words; and love, where we observe the ways in which the rapper addresses the theme throughout his productions.
