Brazilian Rapper MC Daleste has died after being shot in the abdomen on Saturday (July 6) night.
Daleste, real name Daniel Pellegrine, was performing in the city of Campinas when a bullet struck him, reports Billboard.
The rapper fell back “in a sitting position” before others came to his aid.
Daleste was performing at a public housing building in the neighborhood of San Martin.
He died early Sunday after being brought to a nearby hospital.
No information has been released regarding suspects or arrests at this time.
MC Daleste was described as being part of the “Ostentatious Funk” scene, centered in Sao Paulo. The music is described as “a bling-obsessed and violent brand of Rap over looped beats.”
“This is one more sad event in a long history of urban violence in Brazil,” said Sao Paulo native Béco Dranoff, a New York-based deejay and producer. “Music should be the peaceful medium that connects us all for good times and for change.”
Footage of the shooting was captured. Campinas police told Brazilian Media that the videos are the focus of the investigation.
Daleste was 20 years old.
HipHopDX extends its condolences to the family and friends of MC Daleste.

UPDATE: Reacting to the weekend tragedy G1 News spoke to MC Daleste’s father, Roland Pellegrine. XXLMag.com translated the interview. “[My son’s murder was motivated by] envy. Jealousy kills,” Pellegrine said, describing the 20-year-old as “a very good boy, a charismatic boy, docile. He had no enemies.” To those enemies, Roland crowns his child, “My son was the king of Funk.”

Year of B.Hudson. Free Eps every month. July Ep out now www. bhudsonmusic .com
Ain’t NEVER post no music though…why post now? What’s the AGENDA? Why you care now? What do you want to suggestively tell these clowns you cater to while they fuck the site up DAILY…
Rap is violent? Because it’s BEEN ill out there in Brazil, and since that Olympic money is coming, it’s bananas. What’s the point HHDX? Your intentions are looking suspect right now.
couldnt have said it better. more propaganda focusing on anybody who already had hood ties that just happened to rap but got shot from the hood ties. stop making it look like rap is culprit!!!
I’m saying, hhdx looked at the hit map before they posted this. If they wanted a real conversation it would be in the editorial or interview section.
Again, don’t think they ain’t catering to their core demographic right now.
ever since silva got knocked out niggas in brazil been wildin out actin all crazy n shit smh
cx
Vai em paz mlk sangue bom!
RAPPER? Seriously? He was no rapper, far from that. That faggot (sorry homos) deserved to die, he did nothing but dumb down people spreading disease with his lameass “funk”. Seriously, Your IQ drops just from listening to that crap. Holy shit, DJ Lah from Conexo do morro (A REAL ARTIST from hip-hop scene) was shot and killed not long ago and that was barely known. Jesus fucking christ, people are ignorant. I get mad at reading these sensationalist news… Get some knowledge people.
So it was the gay thing? Like I said, AGENDA. Brazil stand up and speak!
Stop whining like a bitch. Ho ass nigga.
shut up, DJ Lah was great, and Daleste was only a good kid trying to do his work. Don’t remember him as this, remember him as an 20 young boy dat have his dreams shattered
“Good kid trying to do his work”. Yeah, right. While who study and work hard to get a little bit more than a mininum wage of R$680 (300$) are constantly screwed. And remember, everything here is insanely more expensive than a country with better conditions of living.
How do you figure what people think and act here? Especially the ones who are influenced by this shit? You think they want to work hard to get their stuff? This ain’t ‘murica homie. People are not used how to live in the capitalism system.
You should come to Brazil and see how fucked up are people here, you think they are “xenial” like the media and the own people try to disseminate? Wrong. They are just egocentric and obnoxious people, which given the opportunity will stab you the back.
I’ve seen news about some robbers who killed a colombian 5 years old because he was screaming for mercy and didn’t want to die, while he was holding his mother. What did he get? A bullet in the head.
What about the dentist who was burned alive because she didn’t have enough money?
Oh! in 2007, 4 robbers jacked a car leaving the driver/mother in the road. A 6 years old was stuck outside the car by the belt and was dragged through 7km (4,6 miles), people yelled trying to warn the robbers, they stopped? They didn’t give a fuck. And guess what, one of them had 16 years old, he served 3 years by “socialeducative” measures. FYI: he was arrested again in 2012 by unlawful possession of firearm, drug dealing, active and passive bribery.
And the list won’t stop growing…
I must inform you, all these motherfuckers are influenced by the kinds of music that this “kid” used to sing.
What’s amusing about these facts, is that people don’t give a fuck about them. They weren’t their “idol”. Oh, and these same people cry desiring the death of those who speaks bad about this “kid”. Ironic, isn’t it?
I hope you don’t listen to mainstream crap, because your argument would be invalid.
Ja Rule up in Brazil these days?

I always say this, if you rap or say something enough, it will come back to you. People should really analyze what they say because knuckle heads in the streets will try you…and you may wake up dead.
If you’re dead, how can you wake up?
you are so right!!
@ Anon
Because you’re alive when you go to sleep.
Thanks IDK, I wasn’t aware I had to dumb down for my trolls.

Respect for a fallen soul…

I feel pretty embarassed for that.
Rest in peace, bless…
