Your Story Starts Here: São Paulo, DJ Dayeh
Meet DJ Dayeh
“One of the most skilled baile funk DJs of her generation…” — that’s how New York’s The Fader magazine describes DJ Dayeh from São Paulo, also known as “the biggest witch.” With a career that began on the dance floors in 2018, Dayeh is the leading female name in São Paulo’s funk scene today, occupying a position that no other woman has ever reached within the “mandela” (funk music scene).
A student of DJs Erryg and B8, she came from Hip Hop to Funk, bringing a unique set that combines a dynamic performance with dark sounds that explore musical styles from the funk parties of São Paulo’s favelas. From north to south, DJ Dayeh is a well-known figure at parties like Baile do BegaDz7 (Paraisópolis), Baile do Helipa (Heliópolis), and Baile da Marcone (Vila Maria), where she has already showcased the quality of her sets. She is currently a resident DJ at Amata in São Paulo and has performed at parties across the country, including Mamba Negra (São Paulo), Baile Cult (Manaus), Beco Elétrico (Brasília), Baile da Brum (Florianópolis), and Baguncinha (Curitiba).
Her journey goes beyond music — it’s about connecting with the community, reflecting the raw and intense soul of São Paulo, and bringing these powerful stories to the dance floors. Want to dive deeper into Dayeh’s passion and vision? 🌆 Check out her full set below…
The Story of DJ Dayeh – São Paulo
DJ Dayeh, born in São Paulo, has been shaking up the city’s music scene since 2018, bringing a sound as bold and complex as the city itself. Her set captures the raw energy and essence of São Paulo—loud, experimental, and deeply influenced by the funk and rap that define its streets.
“São Paulo’s funk is gray, not colorful — it has a darker, more macabre vibe,” she explains.
In her set, DJ Dayeh explores the rhythms of her city, channeling the hustle and soul of São Paulo’s underground scene. On a busy day in São Paulo, we caught up with her to capture something truly authentic.
