Pagode is a Brazilian style of music which originated in the Rio de Janeiro region as a subgenre of Samba. Pagode originally meant a celebration with lots of food, music and dance. In 1978 Beth Carvalho was introduced to this music, liked it and recorded tracks by Zeca Pagodinho and others. Apparently, as time has gone by, the term 'Pagode' has been degraded by many commercial groups who have played a lesser version of the music. Now there is a sense in which the term Pagode means very commercial pop in a negative way.
