NAPA achieves double platinum in Brazil for "Deslocado" and dreams of performing in the country

Portuguese band NAPA celebrated a significant milestone as they received a double platinum award in Brazil for their hit single "Deslocado." The award was presented by Roberta Medina, vice-president of Rock in Rio, immediately after the band's performance at the festival's Super Bock stage in Lisbon. This recognition in Brazil, equivalent to 80,000 units or approximately 16 million streams, follows the single's double platinum success in Portugal. "Deslocado," which represented Portugal at the Eurovision Song Contest, resonated deeply with Brazilian audiences, topping Spotify's viral charts and gaining traction on TikTok and Instagram. The song's theme of displacement and not belonging, stemming from the band's experience moving from Madeira to Lisbon, proved to be a universal sentiment. The band's connection to Brazil extends beyond this viral success, with "Deslocado" inspiring a Brazilian adaptation by comedian Ed Gama and a collaboration with Brazilian band Jovem Dionísio. NAPA, influenced by Brazilian music legends like Caetano Veloso and Tom Jobim, has also recently recorded their upcoming album in Brazil with Brazilian producer Lucas Nunes. The band expressed their desire for a tour in Brazil, highlighting their strong and growing ties to the country.
