About this sound

✦ AI

A short Brazilian funk clip with the repeated uh uh uh chant and pega o passinho RJ hook, used in dance edits, footwork videos and meme transitions.

This is a fast, punchy excerpt from a Rio de Janeiro funk track built around a looping vocal chant of uh uh uh followed by the shouted phrase pega o passinho. The beat is tight and percussive, with the voice sitting right on top of the rhythm so every syllable lands like a cue to move. It feels energetic and playful rather than aggressive, instantly signalling a dance moment. Listeners hear the chant building for a second, then the hook drops and the whole clip turns into a call to start the little step dance it names.

Pega o passinho refers to the passinho, the fast footwork dance that emerged from Rio de Janeiro funk parties and spread widely through Brazilian social media and dance battles. The phrase works as both a challenge and an invitation to dance, which is why short chants like this one are clipped for soundboards and edits. The RJ tag points to Rio, home of funk carioca, and the looping uh uh uh hook makes the clip easy to recognise, reuse in remixes, and drop into videos without any setup or explanation needed.

Pro Tip for Usage

✦ AI

Cut in right before the uh uh uh chant and let the pega o passinho line land exactly on the first dance step or footwork close up. Keep the original funk beat underneath, do not stretch the clip, and avoid talking over the hook.

Use Cases

✦ AI
  • Drop it when a character suddenly starts dancing unexpectedly.
  • Use it over passinho footwork clips from Rio parties.
  • Add it to funk dance battles and challenge edits.
  • Play it as a transition into a dance montage.
