REI TUÊ Lyrics – Matuê | from “XTRANHO”

Matuê kicked off his bold new chapter with REI TUÊ, the explosive opener on XTRANHO, his third studio album that dropped December 10 via 30PRAUM, and it’s the kind of track that grabs you by the collar and announces he’s back in full underground trap mode.

REI TUÊ is Matuê owning his throne as the “Rei Tuê”—that signature scent of money and weed trailing everywhere he goes, with verses spilling over wild nights, unasked-for fame, and divine backing that shuts down the doubters. The production from Sapjer, Tamari, and 6ee bangs with heavy, distorted bass and chaotic ad-libs that feel like a party spiraling out of control, blending Brazilian trap’s raw edge with those hypnotic choral fades in the outro. It’s braggadocio dialed up: diamonds dancing, gothic girls grinding, skinhead punches in the beat, and lines like “Deus falou no meu ouvido que eu era escolhido” that mix spiritual flex with street chaos. No features here—just Matuê solo, channeling the album’s “xtranho” vibe of embracing the weird, the chosen path that money and madness chased him into.

XTRANHO hit with a bang yesterday, complete with a free public listening event at Vale do Anhangabaú in São Paulo that turned the spot into an immersive trap ritual—fans packed in for the first spin under custom lights and sound. The 13-track project dives deep into underground aesthetics, pulling in collabs like Brandão85 on the title cut and others that keep it gritty and real. Matuê built the hype masterfully: cryptic site drops, studio teases, and that lead single MEU CEMITÉRIO two days prior with its cemetery-shot video. It’s all streaming now on Spotify, already climbing charts as fans dissect every bar.

This feels like Matuê doubling down on his roots after 333’s massive run last year. He’s been in the lab solo for months, shaking off mainstream polish to reclaim that raw Fortaleza-to-Oakland energy that put him on the map. With festival slots locked and this drop proving he’s still the chosen one in Brazilian trap, XTRANHO isn’t just an album—it’s him rewriting the rules on his terms.
