Biography

Hip-Hop/Rap group formed in 1997 by Daniel Sancy, Maurício DTS and DJ Colina, who were all convicted and imprisoned in the infamous Carandirú Detention Centre (Casa de Detenção de São Paulo) in São Paulo, Brazil, which existed from 1920 until 2002 and used to be the largest prison in Brazil. The group's first album, titled "Apologia Ao Crime" was recorded within the prison in a mobile studio in 1998 and sold 30,000 copies . The press conference also took place inside the prison. Denílson Vertelo, better known as "Mano Reco" joined the group in 1999 as a singer. Their second album, entitled "O Pesadelo Continua", sold 20,000 copies. These 4 albums followed: "Quebrando as Algemas do Preconceito" (2001), "Ao Vivo" (2003), "Amor é Só de Mãe... O Resto é Puro Ódio" (2003) and "Deus do Morro" (2005). After that Mano Reco converted to evangelic faith and concentrated on Gospel music releasing an album "A Verdade Dói mas Liberta" and a double DVD "Cada Luz uma História". In 2010 he returned to Detentos do Rap to record "O Juiz + Justo é o Tempo" but continues to follow his career in Gospel music since.
