Mr. Catra

Wagner Domingues Costa, better known by his stage name Mr. Catra, was a prominent figure in Brazilian music, famous for his work within the funk carioca genre. Born on November 5, 1968, in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, Catra rose to fame in the 1990s, quickly becoming one of the most recognized voices of the Brazilian funk scene. His music often featured explicit and humorous lyrics, and he was known for his distinctive, gravelly voice.

Throughout his career, Mr. Catra was both celebrated and controversial, unafraid to push boundaries and discuss taboo topics in his songs. Beyond the party anthems, his music also touched on social issues, reflecting the hardships and reality of life in Brazil's favelas. Despite the provocative content of his work, Catra earned a dedicated fan base, and his energetic performances were a staple at festivals and clubs. The titles of his recent releases such as "Com Todo Respeito ao Samba" and "Bum Bum Nao Se Pede - Se Conquista" hint at his diverse musical influences and his playful approach to songwriting. Mr. Catra's legacy continues to influence the Brazilian music scene even after his unfortunate passing on September 9, 2018, due to stomach cancer. His extensive discography and cultural impact ensure that he remains an iconic figure in Brazilian entertainment.
