Background notes

Archive material and source history

Ilú Obá De Min formed in 1974, their name translating to "the drum of the king." They've worked as an ensemble focused on Afro-Brazilian music, with songs like "Mulheres Negras" and "Negro Mar" among their recordings. Their 1978 self-titled album was followed by others including "Samba, Djambá e Batuque" in 1980 and "Afoxé: canto do povo de um lugar" in 2001.

Their music often centers on themes related to Black women's experiences. "Mulheres Negras" became a notable song in their catalog, addressing these subjects directly. The group has included vocalists like Iara Marinho and Telma Costa, and percussionists such as Selma do Coco and Mônica Millet.

Their work continues to draw from traditional rhythms while maintaining a clear thematic focus.
