It stimulates cognitive, emotional, and social development, creating lasting memories and promoting mental well-being. Brazilian Popular Music (MPB) is a diverse musical genre that combines elements of traditional Brazilian music with international influences, known for its poetic lyrics and variety of rhythms.
