Furacão 2000 is a long-running funk carioca sound system from Rio de Janeiro, central to the city's baile funk parties and to the wider spread of Brazilian funk music. Its DJs, MCs and signature announcements became a recognisable part of that scene, with the claim of being number one in Brazil turning into a familiar catchphrase for listeners. As funk clips travelled onto social video and soundboards, the short announcement found a second life as a hype cue, used far beyond the dancefloor to open edits, celebrations and meme videos.
