Jupitter Pimentel Zamboni (born September 4, 1992, São Paulo), known by the stage name Jupi77er, is a Brazilian rapper, composer, activist, and cultural producer, known for his role in the musical duo Rap Plus Size.

Biography

[edit]

Pimentel began his career at the age of 12 and participated in rap battles as a teenager with the group Rimologia.[1][2]

In 2016, he formed the duo Rap Plus Size with Sara Donato,[3][4] releasing the album Corpo e Alma.[5][6] The duo participated in protests and performed in shows that criticized the administration of Brazilian president Michel Temer.[7][8]

Pimentel shared his journey of self-discovery and gender transition on social media, inspiring many people who followed him.[9][10] His identity generated a variety of public reactions[11][12] after he was mentioned in the videocast Entre Amigues, fragments of which were shared on social media.[1][13] Brazilian politician and deputy Nikolas Ferreira recorded a reaction video with Pimentel discussing his gender identity, which became nationally popular.[14][15]

In 2022, he released the album Transcendência, which addresses issues such as gender identity, resistance movements, and prejudices such as transphobia and fat phobia,[9] while also advocating the use of gender-neutral language to combat sexism.[10][11][16] He has also written a course on language and non-binarity.[13][17]

Following a suggestion by Pabllo Vittar, he participated in the campaign "Mais uma Voz" during the LGBT pride parade of São Paulo in 2022.[18]

Personal life

[edit]

Pimentel identifies as non-binary and transmasculine,[19] describing his gender identity as genderfluid[1] and more specifically as boyceta.[20][21] According to his statements, these more inclusive labels accommodate the nuances of gender and gender expression. The Brazilian slang word boyceta is a portmanteau of "boy" and "buceta" ('pussy'),[22][23] and according to Pimentel, identifying as a boyceta gives transmasculine people more freedom to embrace their femininity, while also generating one more debate about the multitude of possibilities of gender expression within the LGBTQ community.[24][clarification needed]
