Anselmo Ralph

Anselmo Ralph de Andrade Cordeiro was born in 1981 in Luanda. He then immigrated to New York to finish his studies where he graduated in accounting at Manhattan College. Later he moved to Portugal where he lived near the city of Setubal. After about 3 years Anselmo moved to Madrid where he lived for a few years. It was then that he discovered his passion for music.
In 2011, he released the lead single “Não me Toca” from the album that was to follow. The song has such an impact that it quickly reached over 1 million views on YouTube (it currently has over 83M).
In 2012, Anselmo Ralph sold out Campo Pequeno, in Lisbon, in a memorable concert edited in CD/DVD and digital formats: Best of Anselmo Ralph – Live. In 2013, the artist released the album A Dor Do Cupido. In the same year, he collaborated with Paulo Gonzo on the theme “Ela É” included in the album Duetos.
In February 2014, at the invitation of Nicolau Breyner and director Edgar Pêra, the Angolan musician made a special appearance in the comedy Virados do Avesso. Three of the musician’s songs were also chosen as the film’s soundtrack: “Não me Toca”, Curtição and Única Mulher.
In 2014 and 2015, Anselmo Ralph was one of the mentors on the show The Voice Portugal, broadcast by RTP 1.
The singer is currently preparing to release a new album and we’ve already heard the song “Como se Te fosse Perder” (duet with Diogo Piçarra) on the main national radio stations (and with over 1 million views).
