Singer/Actress Paula Lima on the May cover of Raça magazine. 

Paula is now busy preparing for her upcoming role in the São Paulo production of the Broadway hit, CATS, in which she will play the role of the cat, Grizabella. If any one has ever seen the musical who could ever forget the hit song "Memory" in the long running musical and as a singer I'm sure she'll be just as good as all the other actresses who have played the part. Congratulations to her on playing the title role.

Afrolista of the Week: Adyel Silva

"Brazilian Songstress-Adyel Silva

This weeks Afrolista is Brazilian singer Adyel Silva. I love all kinds of music and the only music that really matters is good music regardless of what language it's sung in.

I was completely blown away when I first heard her sing because she reminds me so much of Jazz songstress, Carmen McRae in her delivery even though it's in Portuguese.

Adyel seduces her listeners with the musical offerings of Bossa Nova, smooth and electrifying Jazz and the rhythmic sounds of Afro-beat. To learn more about Adyel Silva, click here to her MySpace page.
