Featured Song:
“Pouca Bobagem” (No Big Deal) is an axé track produced by bassist Mônica Michelly, built around a striking bass line and infectious percussive groove. The song emerged from the same collaborative session that brought the three artists together and tells the story of a reconciliation handled with quiet confidence and ease, no drama, no revisiting the past. “No big deal, love / No time to think / Forget what’s gone / Come on in / No big deal, love / Come back to your place.”
