A 20-year-old Brazilian rapper was fatally shot on 6 July 2013, while performing at a free concert in São Paulo state. MC Daleste was midway through the show when he was shot in the abdomen and collapsed on stage. He died later in hospital.
The incident was caught on several videos posted to YouTube by fans who attended the gig. The disturbing clips, which have accumulated over five million views, show Daleste, real name Daniel Pellegrine, rapping before he falls to the ground.
According to Billboard, Daleste was involved in São Paulo's ostentation funk scene, where rappers trade gangster bars over heavily percussive beats. His releases have included songs about drug-dealer's mothers, "goddesses" and hating the police.
