Lambadão cuiabano

Lambadão cuiabano or simply lambadão, is a style of music and dance characteristic of the Mato Grosso region of Baixada Cuiabana, especially in the municipalities of Cuiabá and Várzea Grande, in Brazil. It is a fast rhythm, characteristic of the periphery, which suffers from prejudice, especially against the more sexualized versions of the dance. Swinging and fast-paced, the rhythm is usually accompanied by romantic or playful lyrics. Despite still being blocked outside the periphery, it has already been incorporated into the local culture.
