Biography

MC Kevin, artistic name of Kevin Nascimento Bueno, was born in the city of São Paulo on April 29, 1998, and became one of the great exponents of São Paulo's funk. Starting his musical journey in 2013, he gained national notoriety through prominent platforms in the genre, such as the YouTube channels of KondZilla and GR6 Music. Throughout his career, he released striking hits like "O Menino Encantou a Quebrada" and "Cavalo de Troia", consolidating his name in the contemporary urban scene.

The artist also stood out for several successful partnerships with other exponents of the São Paulo branch, frequently collaborating with names like MC Davi, MC Hariel, and Kevinho. His work reflected the reality of the outskirts and quickly won over crowds, becoming one of the most influential voices of his generation within Brazilian music.

Shortly before his tragic passing in May 2021, resulting from a fall at a hotel in Barra da Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro, he released the track "Minha Última Música". His legacy remains alive among fans and professional colleagues, such as MC Pedrinho and MC Don Juan.
