its adaptability to mutate and evolve by capturing elements from the latest music hits eventually led to ramifications like brega pop, brega chic, and tecnobrega.

the artist reginaldo rossi became a sensation with the release of the song 'garcom' and he self-proclaimed as 'king of brega'.

more recently, some have started to consider older brega hits as classics and the renowned caetano veloso recorded the cover 'vocênão me ensinou a teesquecer' - a brega hit from the early 2000's.
