The series' story is a continuation of that presented in the feature film, which can be considered the first chapter of the show. Four childhood friends, residents of Vila Brasilândia, a poor and violent neighborhood on the outskirts of São Paulo, become rap singers. Preta, Barbarah, Mayah, and Lena form the group Antônia and face prejudice within the hip-hop culture. The series' story takes place two years after Tata Amaral's film.
