Latvian-Brazilian singer-songwriter Laura Rizzotto is turning heads and capturing hearts with her latest single, Papaya. A delightful fusion of Bossa Nova and Pop elements, this track exudes sunshine, transporting you to a tropical paradise – much like sipping a caipirinha on the white sandy beaches of Rio de Janeiro.
Rizzotto, known for her captivating songwriting and representing Latvia in the 2018 Eurovision Song Contest, takes her musical versatility up a notch with Papaya. Created in collaboration with multi-platinum Colombian producer Ali Stone and rising talent Mateo Barragan, the song is a fresh, vibrant homage to her Brazilian roots.
From the first beat, Papaya envelops listeners in a rhythmic, catchy sound that is soothing and stimulating. Drawing inspiration from her love for Rio de Janeiro – the city of her birth and upbringing – Rizzotto crafted a song that celebrates the essence of romance and relaxation. The lyrics are an open invitation to live in the moment, evoking images of breezy afternoons under the tropical sun, dancing and falling in love.
As a singer-songwriter who has also lent her voice to Disney and Netflix productions, she infuses a unique blend of musical styles into this track. The result is an original and refreshing sound that promises an exciting future for her forthcoming projects.
Laura Rizzotto discusses Papaya exclusively with Neon Music, “I feel like people are in need of sunshine energy these days, and “Papaya” provides just that. It’s a light hearted song that emulates the joy of feeling loved, relaxing in nature and taking time to have fun in the sun. The funny thing is we wrote this song in the midst of Covid. We were all in need of a getaway we really couldn’t get… so we made ourselves a musical one. I hope “Papaya” helps transport people to the vacation they need, musically. ?”
So, whether you long for a tropical getaway or looking to add a slice of sun-soaked romance to your playlist, Papaya is the perfect track.
Now available for streaming on all major platforms, Papaya is ready to serve you a delightful musical cocktail. Let Laura Rizzotto’s Papaya transport you to a world of sunshine, rhythm, and love.
