Who is McKatia?
MC Katia, ‘a Fiel’, started having success in Rio de Janeiro in 2000, with the song Ata will get me. The artist gave voice to the women of Rio’s favelas and left the scene in 2008, after the release of Upside down.
At that time, she had an accident and was away from the stage for three years. Her most notable comeback happened in 2020, in the participation of the song queen of the favelasIn Ludmilla. The track paid homage to big female names in funk, such as Valesca Popozuda, MC Carol of Niteroi and Tati Quebra Barraco.
Tati has even gone so far as to ask donations through social networks for a ‘crowdfunding’ for economic help to her colleague for the purchase of a prosthesis. In recent weeks MC Katia’s social networks have shared several moments of her during her hospitalization.
