MC Jacaré, the stage name of Pedro Henrique Mendes Mesquita, is a Brazilian funk artist, producer and arranger from Goiânia, born in 2003. Raised in the Urias Magalhães neighborhood, he became interested in music as a child, learning guitar and later making beats on an old computer. He began posting songs online as a teenager and drew attention in 2019 with âPra Melhorar Meu Diaâ and âImplorou pra Sentar,â tracks that mixed funk with humor and references from outside the Rio-São Paulo axis. In 2020, he broke nationally with âComprei um Lança,â inspired by Rita Leeâs âLança Perfume,â and later recorded a forró-leaning version with Xand Avião. The same period also brought wider attention to âSenta no Fazendeiro.â In 2021, MC Jacaré released his debut EP, Sempre Fui Assim, through Som Livre. He followed in 2022 with âPequi de Goiásâ and âVento Forte,â the latter becoming one of his biggest hits after âComprei um Lança.â After singles including âToma Tapa,â âBoca de Mel,â âVem Pro Vuk Vuk,â âMotel Baratoâ and âA Culpa Não à Minha,â he released his first full-length album, Eletrofunk Raiz, in 2024, with tracks such as âSenta Pro Bruto,â âNovinha de Goiânia,â âPinxadãoâ and âA Culpa Não à Minha.â In 2025, he continued with âSenta e Cala a Boca,â âPosso Até Não Te Dar Flores,â âSET DO JAPA NK 2.0,â âRajada de Graveâ and the album De Norte a Sul. In 2026, MC Jacaré followed with âCarnÃvoro,â âOuvi Dizer,â âVingança,â âFala Mal de Mim, Não Tô Nem AÃâ and âNamorar Esqueceâ with MC Lele JP.
