I am so weak for mystic/astronomy/astrology mentions, so, a song that seems to be about a girl from "Saturn" would catch my attention anyway. But, when I heard Aminé's "Ratchet Saturn Girl", what really drove me crazy is how it kinda is two songs in one (and this is something that happens a few more times on his album "Onepointfive").
The song starts as a regular upbeat trap/rap/hip hop one, with fun (and perhaps ironic?) lyrics about how Aminé is infatuated by this girl in a physical way; but then it suddenly turns into a slow jam, jazzy, sexy, R&B song in which he seems to actually be in love with her, for reasons more than just sex. Perhaps this second part is ironic too? I don't know, I just know I love the mood of the two "songs" that compose this track, and the fact that we have it all in one single piece (so much happening in less than 3 minutes!) is amazing, creative and very pattern-defying.

About the curator: Ana Clara Ribeiro
Music, art and entertainment have always played a big role in the life of Ana Clara Ribeiro. She grew up in Gurupi (an inland city in Tocantins, the youngest State of Brazil), listening to all kinds of music, reading, writing, watching stuff and connecting them to her personal beliefs and other ideas she read about.
As she became a lawyer and a writer, all the topics to which she is constantly exposed continued to give her insights about life, people and the universe, through the lenses of art.
Nowadays, when she isn’t analyzing lawsuits or producing content about Law, Marketing, Business or Music, she is certainly doing something related to her various personal and professional projects, always to the sound of a playlist as eclectic as her life.

Snoop Dogg’s voice and relaxed flow fits the beat extremely well, and the opening line of his verse might explain how he manages to still be on top of his game even after almost 30 years active: “Nothing last forever unless you talking ’bout my rap game“… Quoting a famous Brazilian song, “nice and slow is how we get there” – this seems to be his philosophy…
