A Rio singer-songwriter mixing samba, funk, and hip-hop with songs about Black female empowerment.
For a sense of her sound, try 'Máquina Do Tempo' or 'Melô Da Nega', that second one really shows what she's wrestling with lyrically.
Her 2022 EP 'Melô' included 'Melô Da Nega,' a track that sparked conversations about rhythm, Black female empowerment, and cultural appropriation. Songs like 'Máquina Do Tempo' and 'Intuitiva' show her pulling from Brazilian samba, funk, and hip-hop traditions while writing her own material. She performs live with a band of guitar, bass, drums, and keyboards, working toward a debut album.
From Rio de Janeiro, Lima put out her EP 'Melô' in 2022 with 'Melô Da Nega' drawing both attention and criticism. She's been working on a debut album while building a catalog that includes 'Na Balada,' 'Coisa De Momento,' and 'Máquina Do Tempo.'
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
