Biography

Família IML was an influential Brazilian rap group originating from the city of Londrina, in the state of Paraná. Originally founded in 2003 by Mano Fler — although with roots and activities dating back to the late 1990s — the collective stood out in the national underground scene for exploring sounds related to gangsta rap and horrorcore. Throughout its trajectory, the group engaged in several partnerships with names from the urban scene and expanded its collaborations beyond Brazilian borders.

The group's discography includes important records for Paraná rap, such as the mixtape Londrina Criminal, released in 2008, and the project Só Terrorista (Faixa de Gaza), which marked the end of 2011. Consolidating its relevance in the scene, the group released its first official studio album in 2012, titled Ao Mesmo Tempo, produced by Dom Pablo with features that mixed traditional rap with funk elements. The recognition of their work also earned them prominent nominations in expressive hip hop movement awards, such as the Prêmio Hútuz.

The project's main lineup featured artists such as Mano Fler, DJ Samu, Tiago, Griloman, Paulinho, Melk, and Palmeiras, who helped pave the way for new generations of rap in Paraná. The collective's work dialogued with the aesthetics of other exponents of national rap, coming close to the lyrical strength of groups like Racionais MC's and RZO.
