about

"I wrote this song after reading the book "Child of the Dark: The Diary of Carolina Maria de Jesus." A woman from the favelas of Rio whose diaries were discovered and published. It gives a harrowing idea of what it means to live in poverty and hunger," says Mariana Da Cruz. Under Jair Bolsonaro's government, Brazil has returned to the international map of hunger. 27 million people live in poverty, most of whom are not part of the old, white minority that rules this country. "Gimme Some Power" is a cry of desperation, says Mariana Da Cruz.
