Definitely, the song “Macetando”, by Ivete Sangalo and Ludmilla, can now be considered the biggest hit of Carnival. Proof of this was the recent research carried out by F5. The song gained public popularity with more than 60% of the votes.
Other than that, the numbers on the internet help explain the success. On Spotify alone, the song already has nearly 30 million plays. On YouTube, the official song on Ivete’s profile surpassed 22 million views in four weeks.
On the YouTube Music platform, “Macetando” is the fourth most played song at the moment.
The help of celebrities was also crucial to the popularization of the song. Many artists used their social networks to reproduce the song’s choreography. At Carnival, the dances were already memorized by the fans.
The hit also appeared at Ivete’s most tense moment in the trio: during her fight with Baby do Brasil, who decided to preach and talk about the apocalypse in the middle of the revelry.
After asking Ivete to sing “Pequena Eva”, the Bahian singer said she wouldn’t do that. “I’m going to sing ‘Macetando’, because God is sending Macetando, right? It’s Jesus’ Macetando”, said Ivete. “Oh glory”, replied Baby.
