Time de Monstrão

MC Neguinho do Kaxeta's 'Time de Monstrão' is a powerful anthem of resilience, triumph, and the celebration of life despite adversities. The song opens with vivid imagery of wealth and luxury, symbolized by 'maço de din' (bundles of money) and 'ninfeta' (young women), setting a scene of opulence and indulgence. This hedonistic lifestyle is contrasted with the artist's reflections on his past struggles and the divine intervention that he believes has kept him alive. The lyrics 'Se o NK não morreu foi livramento de Deus' (If NK didn't die, it was God's deliverance) highlight a deep sense of gratitude and faith, acknowledging that his survival and success are due to a higher power.

The song also delves into themes of loyalty and camaraderie, as seen in the lines 'Liga os parceiro mil grau da quebrada' (Call the top-notch partners from the hood). This sense of community and collective strength is a recurring motif, emphasizing that success is not achieved alone but through the support of a tight-knit group. The 'time de monstrão' (monster team) represents a formidable force, united and resilient, capable of overcoming any obstacle. The lyrics celebrate the journey from hardship to prosperity, with references to enduring 'miséria' (misery) and 'corpos feridos de luto' (bodies wounded in mourning), and ultimately achieving a status where 'qualquer território é tratamento vip' (any territory is VIP treatment).

MC Neguinho do Kaxeta's narrative is one of perseverance and positivity, even in the face of adversity. The repeated refrain 'muita positividade mesmo contra a maré' (a lot of positivity even against the tide) serves as a mantra, reinforcing the importance of maintaining a positive outlook. The song's blend of personal reflection, celebration of success, and acknowledgment of the collective effort required to overcome challenges makes 'Time de Monstrão' a compelling and inspiring piece. It resonates with anyone who has faced difficulties and emerged stronger, celebrating the victories and the journey that led to them.
