 | | Nocaute ("knockout" in English) play a style dubbed carioca in their native Brazil; a modern mix of rap, samba, hard rock, and funk. |
 | | Formed in 1992 in the city of Belford Roxo, Nocaute feature rappers Eddi MC and Nino Rap, guitarist Ed Esteves, bassist César Belieny, and female drummer Andréa Wolff. |
 | | As the carioca style struggled to gain a foothold in Brazil, the band found it hard to get a record deal at first, but at long last found a home on Sony Brazil's new hip-hop imprint, Black Groove. |
