Tracy's story

With the challenge, but also the pride of being a woman in a world ruled by men; Tracy exposes her technique and mastered flows inspired by 90’s rap music, putting true hip hop lovers at her feet.
Born in India, raised partially in Portugal where she spent the beginning of her childhood, moved then to Spain where she grew up, and finally established in France: retracing Tracy’s young life means following a route of many thousands of miles across the globe.

From the 5 disciplines that originated in the Bronx, she used dance as her first tool, giving rhythm to the beginning of the 2000s with battles and clashes, driven by the energy and competitiveness of Hip Hop. Instinctively Tracy picked up a pen and a paper and joined the discipline of rap. The gestures, the attitude, the activist spirit, all these characteristics were the evidence of a skill that was waiting to be explored.

For her third album, Tracy is looking to align mind, body, and soul, but also her past, her present,and what she envisions for her future. This project will mark the beginning of a new era for therapper, like a new decade, a new chapter in her life, and her music career.“3” is the name she has chosen for this album, is anunusual but extremely symbolic name that reflects Tracy’s childhood and her upbringing in afamily of three: her mother, her brother, and herself. An uneven number that was a longtimesynonym of pain and a constant reminder of how unbalanced her life was. With time, this familystructure became her holy trinity, her foundation, her biggest support system, a source ofstability, and inspiration. She began to see the number 3 as the only solution to end binarysystems and escape from all the dichotomies imposedby social standards. Tracy doesn’t seethings in black or white, as right or wrong; she’s always in search of that third option, that thirdboxto tick, as if the asymmetric nature of this number was a window to freedom.

The album III

defined by Tracy De Sá

Praise of Individuality

I grew up in a family nucleus of three, with my mother and my brother. An odd number that, for a long time, was a source of pain—a constant reminder of the imbalance in my life. But over time, this nucleus became my foundation, my source of stability, grounding, and inspiration. I began to see the number three as a solution, a way to break free from the binary and the dichotomies imposed by societal expectations. I don’t see things as black or white, good or bad; I always seek the third option, the third box to tick, as if the asymmetry of this number opens a window to freedom.

The goal is to strive to align body, soul, and mind, as well as past, present, and the future I imagine for myself. Through highs, lows, and everything in between, I’ve connected my thoughts to my words and actions, creating hypotheses, antitheses, and syntheses. The number three has become a symbol of abundance, affluence, and an overflow of imagination, information, and femininity.

As a third-culture child, I conceived this work in three languages: English, Spanish, and French, with trap-electro sounds forming the foundation of the festive atmosphere of the project.
