At the Rio de Janeiro carnival, Corrêa composed various Samba-enredos for various Samba schools, such as Portela,[9][10][11][12][13][14][15] Acadêmicos do Salgueiro,[16] Unidos de Vila Isabel,[17][18] Imperatriz Leopoldinense,[19] Estação Primeira de Mangueira,[20] Estácio de Sá[21] and Unidos da Ponte,[22] over his 19 years samba-enredo composer career.

On April 17, 2020, Corrêa was run over by a vehicle in Rio de Janeiro, which required him to be hospitalized to have surgery.[24]

Less than a month after being run over, Corrêa died in Rio de Janeiro after suffering from kidney failure brought on by COVID-19.[23]
