Raça Negra are a hugely popular Brazilian group closely associated with the pagode/samba scene. They broke big in the early 1990s and became known for romantic, sing-along songs that helped take pagode from neighborhood parties to mainstream radio and TV across Brazil.
Over the years, Raça Negra have built a catalog packed with fan favorites—songs like “Cheia de Manias,” “Cigana,” and “É Tarde Demais” are still staples at shows and in throwback playlists. Their long-running appeal comes from that mix of catchy melodies, heartfelt lyrics, and a warm, crowd-friendly vibe that translates especially well to live recordings.
