No female Brazilian singer has topped the charts more than Bahian beauty Daniela Mercury. With over a dozen No. 1 hits and counting, her high-energy blend of samba-reggae, axé and Música Popular Brasileira has captivated the nation, selling out football stadiums and taking over Bahian beaches since her 1991 self-titled debut. Hip-swaying megahits like "O Canto da Cidade" and "Rapunzel" practically count as Brazilian national anthems—and later-year experimentation with electronic music rounds out her sonic resume to the tune of 20 million albums sold.
