Planet Hemp emerged as a Brazilian rap rock ensemble originating in Rio de Janeiro in 1993, recognized for propelling the careers of rappers Marcelo D2 and BNegão, as well as for their pro-cannabis legalization messages in their lyrics. The founding members were Marcelo D2 (vocals), Skunk (vocals), Rafael Crespo (guitars), Formigão (bass), and Bacalhau (drums). Internal conflicts led to the group's dissolution in 2001, after which Marcelo D2 and BNegão pursued individual musical paths. The band reunited in 2012, unveiling the album Jardineiros. In June 2025, Planet Hemp declared their final separation and announced a farewell tour.
