It'' s a mix I do … I mix the songs from Mozambique … there we have the traditional rhythm Marrabenta. (Conventional Marrabenta tune from Mozambique) So I mix Marrabenta, and there'' s a little bit of Brazilian music in it too. I assume music is … it ' s part of my life because considering that I was a kid I already recognized … I currently had that feeling that it was my gift.And I can ' t live without music.
