Emanuella Tenório Rocha (born February 5, 1986, in Major Izidoro, Alagoas),[1] better known by her stage name Manu Bahtidão, is a Brazilian singer and songwriter.[2]
She rose to national prominence in 2023 with the hit single "Daqui Pra Sempre", a Brazilian version of "Tattoo" by Swedish singer Loreen, featuring Simone Mendes. The song reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100 Brazil and peaked at number four on Spotify Brazil.[3][4]
Although born in Major Izidoro, in the Borborema Plateau region of Alagoas,[5] she spent much of her life in Pará.[6]
In 2007, she became the lead vocalist of Banda da Loirinha. In 2009, she briefly joined Companhia do Calypso,[7] but left the same year to join Banda Batidão, where she gained popularity in Pará and became one of the leading names in Technomelody,[8] gaining recognition throughout the North Region of Brazil.[9]
In November 2023, Manu also debuted the song "Abismo" with Mari Fernandez, which entered the Billboard Hot 100 Brazil chart. Following the success of "Daqui Pra Sempre", she was invited to perform at the 2023 Multishow Brazilian Music Awards[10] and on the morning show Encontro com Patrícia Poeta.[11]
