Brazilian pop star Ludmilla has taken over Brazil and Portugal with her Numanice project, a celebration of pagode music, subgender of samba, that’s as much a social movement as it is a musical phenomenon. What started as a small-scale celebration of Brazilian roots has transformed into one of the country’s biggest and most impactful music events.

“My biggest inspiration is the audience,” Ludmilla says. “Every show is a very intense exchange of energy, and I work hard to offer something unique at each performance. Numanice has revolutionized my life and the lives of many other artists who are inspired by it. It’s more than just a musical celebration; it’s a tool for transformation.”

Beyond music, Numanice has a profound social impact. The project has raised over 17 tons of food for those in need and generated thousands of jobs. “I always talk about my team and the people who help me turn my dreams into reality. The collaboration of everyone is essential, they bring a vision and expertise that enriches the project.”

“Teamwork is where everything happens at the level that the audience deserves, within this sum of talents. It’s a huge challenge to balance the artistic and technical side, uniting the grandeur of the show with the intimacy I want to convey, so I overcome this with a lot of planning and a dedicated team with a clear vision of what I want to deliver to the audience,” Ludmilla explains.

With Numanice, Ludmilla wants an experience that celebrates music, diversity, and social impact. By elevating pagode to unprecedented heights, she has solidified her place as one of Brazil’s greatest artists. As she puts it, “Numanice is a celebration of Brazilian music, and I’m proud to be a part of it.”
