Facção Central is a prominent Brazilian rap group known for their impactful lyrics and raw portrayal of life in the urban peripheries of São Paulo. Formed in the early 90s, the band originally consisted of members Eduardo, Dum-Dum, and DJ Bola 8, though its lineup has changed over the years, with Eduardo being the consistent driving force behind the group's hard-hitting narrative.

Eduardo's poetic yet aggressive lyrical style has become a hallmark of Facção Central's music, often drawing on the themes of social injustice, crime, and the harsh realities faced by those living in Brazil's favelas. Their sound, characterized by dark, gritty beats, complements their narrative, creating an atmosphere that immerses listeners in the stories told. Over the years, Facção Central's unflinching approach to addressing the issues of societal inequality and systemic violence has garnered them a dedicated fanbase and has also subjected them to controversy and censorship. Despite this, they continue to be a voice for the marginalized, with their most recent releases like "Horrorcore" and "Realidade das Ruas" continuing to resonate with audiences across Brazil and beyond.
