The music that reaches the audience's ears is the result of a combination of talents, from the artist who gives voice and face to the work to the producer, responsible for creating all the melodic synchrony. However, the role of the music producer often goes unnoticed, despite their importance in creating the final sound.

Rafael Beat is, today, one of the unavoidable names in music production and a clear example of this reality. He was the one who shaped and elevated the career of Mano Chaba, one of the most remarkable voices in kuduro, proving that, without producers, many talents would never achieve the recognition they deserve.
