MV Bill

MV Bill is a Brazilian rapper, songwriter, writer, and documentarian born in Rio de Janeiro in 1974. Raised in Cidade de Deus, he uses hip-hop to address poverty, racism, violence, and life in Brazil’s favelas. With Celso Athayde, he created the documentary and book project “Falcão – Meninos do Tráfico,” which examined the lives of young people involved in the drug trade. His work extends beyond music into cultural and social activism, particularly through projects focused on marginalized communities.
