She was born in Recife, land of Manguebeat and beautiful musical traditions. From an early age, she showed an interest in singing. She moved to Rio de Janeiro at the time she graduated from school, still wishing to attend Medicine school. This whole journey, with an inevitable participation of some loves she had throughout her life, culminated in her first studio album titled Sinto Muito. In 11 tracks, she makes a feminine, personal, sincere record with facing her own demons with joy and good humor.
Her music traces a path between the sounds of Rio and the Northeast, uniting the roots of Duda's past with a future to come, the lyrics give voice to a romantic woman who can not adapt to the fluidity of contemporary relationships.
Duda Beat's musical debut began to be drawn two years ago when she brought her lyrics and melodies to the house of her childhood friend, music producer Tomás Troia. He had no doubts and began to create to produce the tracks with her . What was sadness turned party and art, what was elbow pain turned a romance between Duda and Tomás. The page was turned.
"My music was a way to heal me and to overflow, but at the end of the process I discovered that it will speak to all people who suffer for love, who love and are rejected and who do not fit into the modern world of fleeting relationships" , reflects Duda.

DUDA BEAT Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A vida toda eu quis me dar inteira
Mas você só queria a metade
E desse jeito a gente viveu uma coisa louca
Você gostou
Depois pegou, olhou e viu que não serviu
E então me jogou fora assim
E então me jogou fora assim
And now
Leave a space for crying
You are only reaping what you sow
Leave a space for crying
My love, my love, my love, my love
Eu nunca fui tão humilhada nessa vida por você, meu amor
A vida toda eu quis me dar inteira
Mas você só queria a metade
E desse jeito a gente viveu uma coisa louca
Você gostou
Depois pegou, olhou e viu que não serviu
E então me jogou fora assim
E então me jogou fora assim
E então me jogou fora assim
And now
Leave a space for crying
You are only reaping what you sow
Leave a space for crying
My love, my love, my love, my love
My love, my love, my love, my love
My love, my love, my love, my love
My love, my love, my love, my love
The lyrics to DUDA BEAT's song Back to Bad depict the pain and humiliation that the singer has faced at the hands of her lover. The opening lines reveal the depth of hurt that she has experienced, as she says she has never been so humiliated in her entire life. She laments that she always wanted to give herself completely to her lover but he only wanted a part of her. This one-sided relationship drove them both crazy, and the ensuing turmoil has left her feeling heartbroken.
The chorus of the song "leave a space for crying" is a call to her lover to acknowledge the damage he has done to her and to take responsibility for his actions. She insists that he is only reaping what he has sown and that he must now face the consequences of his behavior. The repetition of "my love, my love" in the song's outro feels like a last-ditch effort to salvage the relationship, but it is clear that the damage has already been done and there is no going back.
Overall, Back to Bad is a poignant representation of the pain of a one-sided relationship and the importance of taking responsibility for one's actions. It is raw and emotional, with lyrics that are brilliantly crafted to convey the hurt and sadness that the singer has experienced.

Eu nunca fui tão humilhada nessa vida por você, meu amor
I have never been so humiliated in my life by you, my love
A vida toda eu quis me dar inteira
All my life I wanted to give myself completely
Mas você só queria a metade
But you only wanted half of me
E desse jeito a gente viveu uma coisa louca
And that's how we lived a crazy thing
Você gostou
You liked it
Depois pegou, olhou e viu que não serviu
Then you took, looked, and saw that it didn't work out
E então me jogou fora assim
And then you threw me away like that
And now
And now
Leave a space for crying
Make room for crying
You are only reaping what you sow
You are only getting what you give
My love, my love, my love, my love
My love, my love, my love, my love
