Our main objective in this article is to describe the discursive topic organization of a brazilian rap. This rap lyrics presents a main discursive topic which is “the life story of a young thug”. This topic derives four topic frames: “narrator”, “narrator’s crimes”, “Guina” (narrator’s best friend) and “narrator’s murder”. The discursive topic organization shows that it is possible to construct a different image of a young” thug”: as someone who has a complex subjectivity and is not all the time only a “bad men”.
