Released in September, 'Novo Testamento' is Ajuliacosta’s second album, further establishing her relevance in the Brazilian musical landscape. The title not only signifies a religious allusion but also a narrative of empowerment and challenge, inviting listeners to reflect on their values and habits. In a rapidly evolving genre, her work offers a refreshing perspective that challenges the status quo of contemporary trap music, positioning her as a transformative figure in the industry.
