The artist's body also arrived in his hometown on Friday. It took two days for the release to take place, for medical reports to be completed and for transfer approval to be granted. Although he had lived for years in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo, it was a family decision to bury the artist in Porto Seguro.
Pedro Henrique was considered an “upandcoming gospel star”. He began his career in 2015 as a singer in the group SingOut after signing a contract with Sony Music. His solo career intensified in 2022 with a move to the record label Todah Music.
