They listen to the same types of music people do here. Two of the best metal bands around come from Rio. Sepultura and Soulfly

I heard recently that the Brazilian senate is considering a bill to make samba the official musical style of Brazil, outlawing all other forms of music, including classical orchestral music, opera, rock, oldies, punk, jazz, bebop, salsa, guajira, country, folk, Indian sitar and the recorded sounds of whales (presented as a music style). The bill includes fairly strict guidelines to determine what may qualify as samba. An opposition bill has also been submitted for a vote which promotes the official adoption of the entire discography of Depeche Mode.

Yeah, Brazilians love listening to this music a lot. I have a few Brazilian friends, and they listen to buy beats a lot. They think this type of music gives them the energy they need, and I think that's a good thing.
