Marília Mendonça is honored by the Latin Recording Academy

Singer and songwriter Marília Mendonça, known as the queen of suffering, was honored at the Latin Recording Academy, responsible for the Latin Grammy, this Saturday (6).

In the statement published on social networks, the great legacy left by the singer was commemorated by the Academy. “Marília Mendonça was an incredible young singer. It was the voice of a whole new generation of Brazilian country music.”

The Academy also mourned the 26-year-old artist’s untimely death. “We will miss Marília a lot, but her legacy will live forever in her music. Our deepest condolences to your family at this very difficult time.”

Marília Mendonça was nominated for the first time for the Latin Grammy in 2017, in the category of “Best Country Music Album”. The artist won the award in 2019, with the album “Todos Os Cantos”, which included a series of concerts recorded in all capitals of Brazil.

This year, Marília is competing in the same category for the album “Patroas” along with singers Maiara and Maraísa. The Latin Grammy is on the 18th.
