about

Together with the British-Nigerian pidgin rap guru Magugu, a musical and political statement has been created. "Serpentes" ("Snakes") describes Brazil's situation after four years under far-right president Jair Bolsonaro. "Society is politically divided, the tone is rough, the cultural scene is traumatised," says Mariana Da Cruz. "It is in this ambience that this song was born." It grooves in an Afrobeat shaken by deep, electronic bass. Over it, Mariana Da Cruz sings a lament about the state of the world and calls for a vaccine against hate.
