Rap da Felicidade was recorded by Brazilian MCs Cidinho and Doca in the mid 1990s and spread widely through the Furacão 2000 funk carioca scene in Rio de Janeiro. Its chorus became one of the most recognisable hooks in Brazilian funk, quoted at parties, football celebrations and community events for decades. Online, the short sung excerpt circulates on soundboards and social edits in Brazil and beyond, reused whenever a creator wants a familiar, hopeful anthem about happiness, roots and walking peacefully in the place they call home.
