“1% Diablita” entered the charts without the support of a record label, marking the Brazilian composer’s international debut.
The song “1% Diablita”, currently in the Top 200 of Spotify in Colombia, almost had Anitta as a performer. Brazilian composer and singer Lucas LM, who sings in Spanish on the track, revealed that the song was created with an eye on expanding horizons in the Latin market.
At the time, Anitta’s interest in the project raised great expectations.
“It was our first composition in Spanish and Anitta immediately showed interest. For us it was like reaching the top,” said Lucas LM, recalling the team’s enthusiasm. However, despite the initial enthusiasm, the song was not recorded by the singer.
According to Lucas, the process involved obstacles that go beyond the choice of artist. “Many people don’t understand the behind the scenes. It’s not just about appreciating music and recording it. There are factors like career timing, label decisions and managers. With Anitta there was this desire, but the planning ended up not moving forward”he explained.
At the time, the composer believed that the track would be included in a reggaeton album that Anitta was developing. However, changes in record labels and career strategies meant that these plans were postponed. While Anitta continued with other projects, such as the funk album Funky generationnominated for a Grammy, “1% Diabita” was forgotten.

Over time, Lucas LM decided to release music himself. At the end of October “1% Diabita” reached the public and quickly began to gain momentum. Without the support of a major record label, the song reached number 84 on the Spotify charts in Colombia, being featured for six consecutive days.
The singer stood out for his authentic interpretation and the engaging production of the song, which mixes reggaeton with Brazilian influences. For Lucas this success is more than a personal achievement; This is a milestone for its entry into the international market.
“It’s been incredible to see music come to life and reach such a wide audience. We’ve always dreamed of this, even without the resources of big productions,” the singer said. The clip for “1% Diabita”, available on YouTube, also contributed to the song’s impact, showing Lucas’ dedication to presenting quality work.
The path of “1% Diablita” is proof of the potential of independent composers and artists in the Latin market. As Anitta continues to shine in her international career, Lucas LM proves that talent and persistence can open doors, even when plans don’t go as planned.
