Ludmilla and the conquest of the ‘family left’

Ludmilla and the conquest of the ‘family left’


The country’s most promising pop artist can grow even more if he’s willing to pay a price: ‘realign’ his musical discourse

Some spoke openly, others commented on the small mouth, but the idea was launched shortly after ludmilla got through Rock in Rio Sunset Stage 2022. After all, why Sunset? Its place, as was evident from the performance and the mobilization of the audience, would be the main stage, the World. And if we compare what Ludmilla has done with other attractions in the world, like singer Iza, the calculation error of the manufacturers becomes more evident. “Iza,” said a source, “she is a poster girl for TIM, one of the sponsors of the event. Did you notice the blue they used in the costumes?” A case of artistic interference with a sponsor’s subliminal message? It would be a scandal, but it is only a conjecture.




Ludmilla and the conquest of the ‘family left’

The fact is that Ludmilla went up there to change her life. She spent something like R $ 2 million out of her pocket to put together a show that should go beyond power and party, but strive for visual excellence. We are not thinking here of evaluating what she sings, but perhaps it is a brushstroke: Ludmilla grows up without apparent desire to reorient the root of her prose. Wouldn’t it be nice to think about it? Her resistance involves the rejection of her non-negotiable fidelity to the spirit of funk dances, with all the idiosyncrasies related to the anatomy of the human body. “That ignorant ass that taca, taca”, she says in the recent success TIC Tac, conquering territories with Sean Paul. “I’m crazy, crazy about gin / I’m on the wave, bring me to an end”.

Cannabidiologists are euphoric about the “end” and radical feminists seem to have understood that a woman who gives the letter to sex, in a sexist universe, is also power. But the “good manners” driven filters (Globo and his tentacles, including Rock in Rio) might see him as an impediment to bringing him to the masses. It would not want to convert radical conservatives, these are irrecoverable, but spread through the meshes of the “familiar left” – a kind of shameful former right that has begun to admit the guidelines of identity as long as there is a softening in this poetic. .

While someone thinks it, Ludmilla just vibrates. The concert she performed on September 11 at Sunset commemorated her ten year career and was recorded by her troupe. One text says that “unprecedented and incredible behind-the-scenes images of the entire planning and execution process of what was shown on the festival stage”. This is your expansion. The scenes became a documentary series that began airing this Thursday, 20, on the singer’s profile on TikTok. “I wanted that show to represent my decade-long career and for all viewers to connect with at least one piece of my story. It was like I walked and faced everything I went through to be there,” she said.

The clouds surrounding his story are already worthy of a biography. Ludmilla is from Baixada Fluminense, Duque de Caxias, and she has been singing since she was eight. Her father soon disappeared, leaving her mother and grandmother to look after the children. Her mother has already claimed to be hungry to feed the baby. Today, at the age of 27, she became the first black singer in Latin America to reach more than 1 billion streams on Spotify and more than two billion views on YouTube. Two billions. Between funk and pagodas, she amasses an impressive list of victories in just ten years on the scene and Numanice # 2 was nominated for a Latin Grammy for best samba album. Your flights start to have more international destinations. After all, out there, in the ears of a gringo, no matter what the lyrics say. Ludmilla is the Brazil they hope will not disappear.
