Brazilian singer-songwriter Vitão has released his latest album, 'Mosaico', which brings together 13 tracks of music that reflect his artistic evolution over the past two years. The album features a mix of Brazilian music, R&B, soul, and rap, showcasing Vitão's growth as an artist. With this new project, Vitão aims to reconnect with his musical roots and explore new ways of storytelling through music.
Vitão's music career began in 2016 when he started publishing videos and covers of songs on the internet. His breakthrough came in 2019 with the release of 'Café', a song that remains special to him. Vitão recalls this period with fondness, marked by creative freedom and the dreams of a young artist. He has since evolved as an artist, but now seeks to recapture that initial spontaneity and explore organic instrumentation.
One of the highlights of 'Mosaico' is the collaboration with Portuguese artist David Carreira on the song 'Dizer Que Te Amo'. The song features Brazilian elements and a catchy melody, which Vitão was enthusiastic about when invited to participate. The collaboration was done remotely, with Vitão recording in Brazil and David in Portugal, before meeting in person to finalize the track.
Vitão's connection to Portugal is strengthened through this collaboration, and he feels welcomed in the country. He believes that such partnerships help bridge the cultural gap between Brazil and Portugal. The album 'Mosaico' is a testament to his ability to blend different styles and create a unique sound that appeals to a broad audience.
The album's tracklist includes 'No Pain No Gain', which emphasizes the importance of dedication and hard work to achieve goals. The album's final track, 'Setenta Anos', features an organic sound, close to samba and samba-rock, marking a new musical direction for Vitão. This direction is influenced by Brazilian music legends such as Gilberto Gil and Djavan.
Vitão's appearance on the 'Palco RECORD' show, broadcast on RecordTV Cabo Verde, further solidifies his connection to Portugal and his growing international fanbase. The show airs on Saturdays at 20:00 Lisbon time and features a range of musical performances.
With 'Mosaico', Vitão has created a musical mosaic that reflects his artistic journey and his desire to reconnect with his Brazilian roots. The album is a significant step in his career, showcasing his growth as an artist and his ability to blend different styles and create something new and exciting.
