About FUNK_CARIOCA mode

Take the FUNK_CARIOCA funk mode and override any of the 14 customisable dimensions with your own free-text. The base FUNK_CARIOCA prompt below already passes through GENPROMPT's quality scoring (avg PREMIUM tier across the 18-field canonical contract); your overrides surgically replace the values you care about while everything else keeps the curated pool depth.

FUNK_CARIOCA mode is classic funk carioca — Rio favela tamborzão, syncopated 808 rolls, party-call vocals. It belongs to the Brazilian Funk universe (Brazilian funk montagem · phonk · automotivo).

Pro tips

  • Use 25-40 char descriptors — anything longer is auto-truncated to keep the prompt under Suno's 1000-char budget.
  • Pin the fields you love with the 📌 LOCK button (Pro) so RE-ROLL preserves them across iterations.
  • Combine with HYBRID in the WORKBENCH to override fields ON TOP of a 2-mode blend — maximum custom control.
