Of course!
A very simplified and shallow addendum to the historical context:
“funk carioca“ is a style that arose in Brazil's urban peripheries, mainly in Rio de Janeiro (”carioca” is a term for those born in the capital). The artists had no money and no access to musical instruments or technological resources. So, they could only buy some K7 tapes that had some simple percussion from Japanese keyboards and some American ones. Then they would improvise very popular and simple lyrics over these beats. And most of them were funk and disco. But the media abrace it and today is a explosion here in South America.
