Gusttavo Lima, born Nivaldo Batista Lima on September 3, 1989, in Presidente Olegário, Minas Gerais, Brazil, is a prominent Brazilian singer, songwriter, and record producer.
Renowned for his contributions to sertanejo music, a popular genre in Brazil, he has achieved massive success both nationally and internationally.
Coming from humble origins, Lima began his musical journey at a very young age and rose to fame with infectious hits that blend romantic lyrics with catchy rhythms.
He is also known by the nickname “O Embaixador” and has built a career marked by sold-out concerts, high-value performances, and a strong presence in the Brazilian music industry.
Siblings
Gusttavo is particularly close to his older brothers, Willian Lima and Marcelo Lima, with whom he shared his earliest musical experiences.
At just seven years old, Lima joined his brothers to form the Trio Remelexo, performing together and laying the foundation for his career in music.
The trio’s performances in local settings helped shape his early style and passion for sertanejo.
In recent years, Lima has reunited with his brothers on stage, including recording a special DVD in 2025 that revisited their Trio Remelexo roots.
He also has a sister named Roseli Lima, and other siblings are part of his family, though less information is publicly available about them.
