We’re all well aware of the impact that the Hip-Hop culture has had worldwide and the positive vibes it brings when properly implemented, but we don’t think we’ve ever seen nuns use Hip-Hop to spread the word of the Lord during a sermon, until now.
According to TMZ, two Brazilian nuns decided to take things up a notch during a routine sermon on a live Catholic TV segment and not only did they perform an impromptu beatbox session, but even did a little dance number that left their viewers entertained and probably a bit confused. Sisters Marizele Cassiano and Marisa de Paula of the Copiosa Redenção congregation in Brazil performed the surprising “cipher” during the live broadcast with Sr. de Paula showcasing some impressive beatboxing skills. Sr. Cassiano did her own one-two step with the deacon happily joining in.
Per TMZ:
The vibes were immaculate — even host Deacon Giovani Bastos couldn’t resist. He jumped in, matching Sister Marisa’s slick moves, and before you knew it, they were all in full holy groove mode.
TBH, it’s a breath of fresh air, especially from an institution that’s usually seen as out of touch with modern culture. However, the sisters have since made it clear this is all about beats with a purpose — ’cause music’s a powerful way to reach struggling young people.
Young people are beatboxing out in Brazil in 2025 and no one told us?! Young people in America don’t even do that anymore.
While we surely enjoyed the small segment you already know there’s going to be people out there condemning them for having a little fun in trying to appeal to a younger generation. More than likely MAGA “purists.”
