Source-derived summary

Bonde das Maravilhas is a Brazilian group of funk carioca created in 2011 in Niterói. The group achieved recognition mainly with the song "Quadradinho de Oito" also called "Aquecimento das Maravilhas".

History

In mid-2011, six teenagers (Karoline, Thaysa, Gaaby, Rafaela, Joyce and Thalia) from the Complexo do Serrão community in Niterói, Rio de Janeiro, created a dance group dedicated to homemade videos of funk carioca uploaded to the YouTube platform. Shortly after the announcements, the group gained local notoriety for daring choreography and partnerships with funk artists from the region. The so-called "Bonde das Maravilhas."

As time went by, the group achieved international fame, thus managing to tour Europe (Switzerland, Italy, France, Portugal), Africa (Angola) and parts of the Caribbean (Suriname, French Guyana).

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as brailizan funk carioca group. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jul 24, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q20048511. None of the 0 selected statements returned an explicit reference. The first chronological checks are 2011.

Critical limits

Overview language is designed for orientation and should not be treated as a substitute for the evidence cited beneath it. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Use the entry as an orientation point, then follow its citations and revision history. Names, dates and institutional relationships should be checked against the original record.
