Anselmo comments on the song and the collaboration: “I’ve always had the idea of blending my traditional sound, the traditional sound of my country, with Latin rhythms and a touch of Afro beats. When we can enjoy the music both in and outside of it, that’s when the magic happens. When Carlos added his voice to the song, it became even fresher. I believe this song is a great example of a fusion of African and Latin music.”
