Her music is also popular in Portugal.[4] She rose to fame in the mid-90s as the lead vocalist of the axé music band ‘Banda Eva’, who have sold over 5 million records.[5] After leaving the group in 1999, Sangalo released the successful self-titled debut album Ivete Sangalo.[6]

Life and career

[edit]

Beginnings, Banda Eva and early solo career

[edit]

Ivete Sangalo was born in Juazeiro, Bahia, where she spent her childhood. Her grandfather was born in Spain.[11][12] She started her singing career in events at school and then started singing at bars. She started to receive attention and signed with Sony Music. In 1993, Sony decided to reform the Axé group Banda Eva and she was chosen as the lead singer. Her live album with the band, Banda Eva Ao Vivo, was their best-selling album, selling over a million copies. In 1997 she started a solo career and in 1999 she released her first album. With many upbeat Bahian rhythms and axé, the album received gold and platinum certification. The following year she released, Beat Beleza, which also achieved platinum status.

In 2000 she released the album Festa, whose title track was another success. The single was very popular, and the album got platinum certification. "Festa" was her biggest single up to that point and the video received huge airplay. "Festa" was the most popular song of 2001 in Brazil. Its music video featured 20 cameo appearances by Brazilian celebrities. In 2002, she released the album Se Eu Não te Amasse Tanto Assim (If I Didn't Love You As Much), titled after her big hit that reached the first position in the singles chart. The album, which features a duet with American singer Brian McKnight, didn't sell as much as her previous albums, but was still a hit. Following Se Eu Não te Amasse Tanto Assim, she released Clube Carnavalesco Innocentes Em Progresso in 2003. It was the lowest-selling solo album of her career but it still managed to receive gold certification.

2003–2008: Career Progression

[edit]
Sangalo in 2004.

MTV Ao Vivo Ivete Sangalo MTV Live: Ivete Sangalo (2004), was a live album that included her biggest hits, a few of which were released on previous live albums, and some Banda Eva hits. The album garnered huge sales, most of them due to the single "Sorte Grande", which was renamed "Poeira" by the public and became a big hit at parties, on the radio and also at soccer stadiums (where it was used to cheer on the teams). The song received heavy airplay in Brazil and was also included in the soundtrack of the Fifa 2005 videogame. The album was certified diamond and was the second best-selling album of 2004 in Brazil. The DVD, which included the concert held at the Fonte Nova stadium, was certified 3x Diamond, sold over 600,000 copies, and is the best-selling musical DVD in Brazil of all time (and the best-selling musical DVD in the world in the second half of 2005).

In 2005, Sangalo was called by Billboard: Brazil's Queen of Song, due to the release of her first live DVD "MTV Ao Vivo" released at that time, the album made references to Carmen Miranda in one of its tracks, Miranda lived in the United States during the first half of the 20th century and epitomized Latin sensuality through her numerous Hollywood films. Asked if she intends to repeat Miranda's success, Sangalo said, "It would be too pretentious for me to even dream about that parallel. But I would like to follow [in] the steps of Tom Jobim and Caetano Veloso. They are Brazilian artists who are respected all around the world. For me, that will be more difficult to achieve, because I want to be known for the kind of music I sing-[which] doesn't fit the Brazilian standards foreign audiences are used to. I want people to [respect] my musical style."[13]

Her 2005 album, As Supernovas, received triple platinum certification shortly after its release. The album was less upbeat than her previous ones and included some songs with a 1970s touch, with the big influence of Brazilian singer Ed Motta. She also included the hit "Soy Loco por ti America", a Gilberto Gil song. Sangalo's cover would become the theme song of TV Globo's soap opera América, and thanks to the tie-in, the song became very popular. "Quando a Chuva Passar" was notable for being nominated at the Latin Grammy Awards, an uncommon feature for a non-Spanish-speaking singer. As Supernovas also received diamond certification which consolidated her as the biggest female solo singer in Brazil.

Due to her remarkable appearances on TV, TV Globo, the biggest Brazilian TV station, invited her to host the TV show Estação Globo, which aires about six episodes every year in late December/early January.

On December 16, 2006, she performed in the Maracanã in Rio de Janeiro, where Paul McCartney, Rolling Stones, Kiss, Police, Rush, RBD, and Madonna also performed. She was the first Brazilian act to perform in this stadium since pop phenomenon Sandy & Junior in 2002. The concert was released as a DVD in May 2007. While her last live DVD was an MTV Live, this new one was broadcast by Multishow.

Her biggest career hits are "Sorte Grande" and "Festa".[14] Sangalo has sold more than 7,000,000 CDs and more than 1,500,000 DVDs.[citation needed]

According to O Globo, Sangalo asks for R$240,000 (US$120,000 per concert) and a percentage of tickets sale, which makes her final paycheck R$350,000 ($275,000), the second highest-paid act in Brazil. (Roberto Carlos is the most expensive, asking R$700,000 per concert). For special concerts, the price may reach R$2 million ($1 million).

Her parallel businesses include performances at her "blocos" at Salvador carnival and other performances at trio elétrico in off-season carnivals. Her sponsorship deals include such companies as Grendene, Koleston, Danone, Arisco, Panasonic, Bradesco, and Nova Schin beer.

Her Ao Vivo no Maracanã DVD sold 555,000 copies, making it the best-selling musical DVD of the year in Brazil and the best-selling musical DVD overall in 2007 for Universal Records internationally.[15] In October 2008, she released a children's album with Saulo Fernandes, lead-singer of Banda Eva.

It was amazing", said the singer to the British newspaper "Hull Daily Mail".
