Sarah Vianna is a singer who hails from Praia, Cape Verde. Her latest kizomba single, “More Time,” features rapper Brutu and was produced and mixed by Ismael De Brito for Izzy Productions.
Her Roots
Sarah’s Cape Verdean therefore it’s no surprise that when asked about what sparked her interest in singing, Cape Verde is infused in her response. She says: “As a little girl I grew up singing in church and I was also involved in the music program at Jeremiah Burke High School in Dorchester. Growing up in Dorchester, where there’s a big Cape Verdean community, I was influenced by the culture, community and family.” She adds, “I am also inspired by Mayra Andrade and Djodje.”
Kizomba
Sarah elaborates on the writing process of “More Time” and what inspired the racy kizomba hit. She states: “I always wanted to write a song that is sexy and risky. I think ‘More Time’ was inspired by what all ladies feel and think at times but are too afraid to say. I wanted to write something that women could relate to. I was nervous about singing it but once I did, it felt good.”
The single features rapper Brutu. In regards to the collaboration with rapper Brutu, Sarah says: “Brutu got in touch with me because he wanted me to be on one of his songs. We started talking about the project and when I heard him rapping I thought he was super dope. Therefore I told him, do something on my track and I’ll do something on yours as well. That’s how that happened.”
More Time, Music Video
As far as shooting the video for “More Time,” directed by CeeJay Sena, Sarah says, “Shooting ‘More Time’ was easy because I love being in the moment and performing.”
