Caetana lists the reasons why you shouldn’t miss “Deluxe Afronordestina”

Caetana, from Pernambuco, has walked with a lot of rhythm and references in a musical world that is crying out for originality. She broke barriers by being the first trans woman to record a frevo, she bet everything on herself and has been successful with “Deluxe Afronordestina”, her debut album that arrives neat, careful and with five reasons why you need to listen to it.

She herself made the list for Máxima:

1 – The originality of this album is genuinely exciting.
The album is like a journey through originality, a musical expression that delves into Caetana’s romantic and dreamy perceptions of the ideal life, while facing the challenges of reality and seeking to convey the importance of respecting the sea. His melodies become memories that echo the need to care for our environment. “I have the sauce”, as the artist says.

2 – An artist under the sign of Leo, born on August 13, is responsible for this work.
The fact that it was conceived by a Leo woman is what gives this album a special touch. In the artist’s own words, she is sensitive, affectionate and careful, but also firm in her convictions. The idealization of a perfect world would exempt her from the work of constructing narratives that teach adults about the essential values ​​of society, but her restlessness in doing so shines through in the music and art she produces..

3 – It is the perfect mix between heat and cold, reason and audacity.
The Deluxe version of the album, created by producers Passarinho and Eramir, brings an incredible continuation, introducing a variety of musical genres and a more organic approach. The inclusion of elements such as jazz and blues to contrast with reggaeton and frevo adds new dimensions to the work. “I thank the boys for that”, highlights the artist.

4 – Provocatively addresses the man’s commitment to assuming the role of a woman.
“I know you” is one of the songs that touches me the most on this album. She subtly addresses the lack of love and the harsh reality of transvestites who yearn for genuine affection but are often treated as objects. However, its message resonates beyond this specific context, touching on universal issues of emotional helplessness.

5 – Where there is frevo, there is guaranteed celebration.
Frevo is a cultural force that transcends geographical and temporal borders. Whether in Recife, São Paulo or Rio, it draws crowds and incites a vibrant feeling of joy and vitality. Its versatility allows it to be appreciated and reinterpreted in different musical styles, proving to be the root of many other artistic expressions. As the popular saying goes, whoever doesn’t like frevo isn’t a good guy. It is capable of infecting even the most resistant.
