Marília Mendonça (1995 – 2021) was a Brazilian singer-songwriter hailed as one of the leading figures in the sertanejo music genre, particularly in the "feminejo" subgenre, which gave a voice to women in a traditionally male-dominated scene. Born in Cristianópolis and raised in Goiânia, Marília began her career very young, penning songs for various artists before embarking on her own successful singing career. Her poignant and insightful lyrics, often focusing on themes of love, betrayal, and empowerment, resonated with audiences across Brazil and catapulted her to stardom. Her powerful voice and relatable persona not only won her a massive fan base but also numerous awards and critical acclaim, positioning her as an influential figure in Brazilian music.

Mendonça's discography boasted a series of hits, exemplified by songs from her live album and EP series, such as "Decretos Reais," "Você Não É Mais Assim (Ao Vivo)," and "Amava Nada (Ao Vivo)." Her ability to captivate audiences with both emotive ballads like "Flor E O Beija-Flor" and more upbeat tracks showcased her versatility as an artist. Her untimely death in a tragic plane crash at the age of 26 was a massive loss to the music world, ending a flourishing career that had made a profound impact. Her legacy endures through her music, which continues to be celebrated by fans and fellow musicians.
