Background notes
Archive material and source history
Calema is a Cabo Verdean duo made up of brothers António and Fradique Mendes. They work with traditional African rhythms and contemporary pop. In 2022, they collaborated with Guinea-Bissau singer Karyna Gomes on the song 'Noite Feliz.'
That track became a holiday anthem in some circles, with lyrics about hope during the festive season. The collaboration drew some criticism, with accusations that Calema borrowed rhythms from a traditional Cabo Verdean song and that Gomes imitated another artist's vocal style.
Their work together sits alongside other Calema releases like 'Famadi' from 2021, which nods to traditional dance rhythms, and the 2020 track 'Haja Luz.'
