Brasil de Quem? (Parte 4)

MC Sid's 'Brasil de Quem? (Parte 4)' is a powerful critique of contemporary Brazilian politics and society, delivered through sharp, poignant lyrics. The song opens with a reference to American foreign policy, drawing a parallel between the aggressive actions of a 'crazy American' and the Brazilian president's support for such policies. This sets the stage for a broader discussion on the state of Brazil, highlighting the president's desire to transform the country into a war zone, akin to Baghdad, without considering the already high levels of violence in the favelas.

The song then shifts to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, criticizing the government's dismissive attitude towards the virus and the resulting socio-economic disparities. MC Sid points out the irony of online classes being accessible only to those who can afford them, while many students in poorer neighborhoods lack internet access. The decision to potentially not cancel the ENEM (a national exam) during such a crisis is questioned, emphasizing the inequities in the education system.

MC Sid also addresses the hypocrisy of influencers and the wealthy, who advocate for staying at home while failing to support their own domestic workers. The song critiques the performative nature of humanitarian aid and the government's focus on maintaining power rather than addressing corruption and social issues. The artist draws attention to the economic decline, political instability, and the perpetuation of racism and sexism by mainstream media. The song concludes with a call for love and change, urging listeners to reclaim Brazil for its people and resist the oppressive forces at play.
