Considered one of the biggest names in reggae in the country, singer Edu Ribeiro just received from the record company Radar recordingsa commemorative plaque honoring more than 40 million streams reached only in Spotifyand a tribute to his contribution of more than two decades to Brazilian music.
“It’s hard to describe the feeling of getting something you’ve been waiting for all your life, it never came, and because of the delay, you even gave up waiting and out of nowhere, going to a meeting, you get the “blissful dream of adolescence“, Comments Edu Ribeiro. “Yes, I come from the times of the Golden Globe, Gold Record, Diamond, Platinum, where the artist received from the hands of Faustão or Gugu. I grew up seeing great names of Brazilian music honored and obviously I dreamed of it too.”
And it continues like this: “However, despite having had recognition from the public, I never received recognition from the industry. I thought it would be a natural path, but it was really difficult. So I moved on and gave up on that recognition. Radar Records it was literally a “watershed” in my life, because they saw a value in me that no one else saw. They invested, they bet, they showed incredible works, all their potential and this did not stop them from valuing the artist. Raúl Jr. and his team are proof that there is STILL LIFE in the music industry, and not just “counting machines that evaluate numbers”. After a 30-year career, receiving an honor like this is indescribable.”celebrate Edu RibeirOR.
