"When we started this album, it felt as if there was a volcano inside me, erupting with rhythms, song, sensuality, life experiences and memories. I am the storyteller, telling my life's proud and joyful story..." - Daúde
Though this may come as a suprise to those unfamiliar with Brazil's music scene, Daúde is a rare find: a black woman in Brazil's eclectic pop-roots music, known as Música Popular Brasileira (MPB), and the first to fuse MPB with African roots and modern production values, setting the whole thing alight with sensual, driving dance beats.
While many of her peers have been abandoning Brazilian music to undertake rock, hip-hop, techno, and dance, Daúde takes the opposite tack. She looks to see how these forms can be brought back to enhance Brazilian music, not to replace it. The mix is all her own and the style she has created is unique.
After a four-year break between albums of new material, she is back with her first album on Real World Records. "NEGUINHA TE AMO is really an homage to the Brazilian woman and her strength," says Daúde, "and to the legacy of mixed races, the happiness, humour and knowing tolerance of the Brazilian people, and, finally, to Africa, expressed naturally and in a modern style. I never doubted what I was doing. Even with the world in such a mess, this is what carried me through the making of the album. Throughout, my challenge was to show another side of Brazilian music."
Produced by Will Mowatt (Angelique Kidjo, Chico Cesar, Soul II Soul), this album includes songs from Brazilian legends Jorge Benjor, Pierre Barouh, and the mighty team of Baden Powell and Vinicius de Moraes.
