Biography

Boombeat is a Brazilian rapper, singer, and songwriter who stands out in the rap and LGBTQIA+ scene in Brazil. Born in Bauru, in the interior of São Paulo, but raised in the capital city of São Paulo, she began her career in 2017, singing backing vocals for singer MC Bivolt, where she also had her first opportunities to perform. In 2018, she was a co-founder of the Quebrada Queer collective, the first LGBTQIAPN+ rap collective in Latin America. In the same year, she released her first single, "Guerreiros e Guerreiras", followed by "Nem Tudo É Close" in 2019, which anticipated her self-titled debut album, released in March 2020. This album featured collaborations with artists such as Bivolt, Glória Groove, and Ecologyk, and addressed themes like her gender transition and her experiences as a travesti.

In 2022, she released the EP "Bárbara", and in 2023 she began her solo career with the single "Borboleta", which explores her journey as a travesti and the conditions faced by trans people in Brazil. The song, accompanied by a music video, was described as a musical metamorphosis and a manifesto of resistance. In 2024, she released her first studio album, "METamorFOSE", featuring collaborations with Emicida, FBC, Urias, Duquesa, Tuyo, among others. The album addresses themes such as self-esteem, transgender identity, and seeks to humanize the trans body, promoting identification beyond the LGBTQIA+ community.

Boombeat's music is recognized for its sharp rhymes, striking melodies, and unique style. Her art is seen as a tool for social transformation and the projection of a new world. In 2023, she concluded an important cycle with the Quebrada Queer collective, but remains active in the music scene, preparing new projects and inspiring the public with her authenticity and courage.
