[7] V Império (Banzé, 2008) [3] [8] is considered the album that solidified Porto as the capital of the country's hip-hop scene.[ citation needed ] In 2010, they were on-boarded to Optimus Discos by Antena 3 presenter Henrique Amaro, who was the artistic director of the label's project focusing on Portuguese talent. [9] Their EP Arte de Vivier was released in 2010, followed by A Grande Tribulação in 2011.

In 2015, the band started filming for what was initially going to be a documentary but later morphed into a multi-episode documentary series. [15] It was directed by Rui Miguel Abreu and released onto YouTube. [16] In 2017, the band shared that they were primarily focusing on their solo work but that "[t]hese breaks are nothing new."
