In his most recent release, Coréon Dú joins forces with Rui Orlando on the song Planetsa collaboration that marks a new milestone in both artists' careers. The piece, which also features Mallaryah (producer and singer of the group DreamBoyz), combines talent, sensitivity and a deeply romantic musical approach.
How did this collaboration come about?
The story between Coréon and Rui Orlando is not new. Their creative bond began years ago, when Coréon produced the television quiz show Angola EncantaRui won the competition. Since then, Rui has consolidated a solid musical career, both in Portuguese-speaking countries and on the international scene, where his name is synonymous with quality Kizomba.
In addition to their musical relationship, Coréon also directed Rui in his first project as an actor, in the popular soap opera Jikulumessu. Over the years, the two have shared cultural and creative stages in various productions, which has led them to Planets The result of a mature and well-established artistic complicity.
Romance as a common thread
Although each of the three artists involved in Planets possesses a clearly defined style, all sharing a special sensibility towards romance as a central narrative. From the lyrics to the musical arrangement, romanticism permeates the song in every detail.
The union of their different creative visions has allowed the emotional message to be strengthened. The song not only speaks of feelings, but transforms them into an enveloping sound experience, with nuances that are specific to each author, but at the same time with absolute coherence.
A creative process in three voices
The creative process behind Planets was developed in a highly collaborative way. Coréon contributed mainly to the lyrics and melodic line, while Rui Orlando stood out for his instrumental sensibility. Mallaryah left his mark through electronic production, bringing a distinctive stamp to the rhythm and texture of the song.
The merging of these individual strengths has resulted in a balanced and richly nuanced workwhere each artist is recognised without overshadowing the others.
What makes Planets?
Despite a long career in music, Coréon Dú considers that each project has its own personality. Planets is distinguished not so much by breaking with the previous, but by how it allows each listener to create their own connection with the song. The intention has been to offer a piece that invites intimacy, emotion and free interpretation.
What's next: more collaborations or a new EP?
Although today's music landscape has been profoundly transformed by digitalisation, Coréon is committed to a long-term approach. Beyond one-off strategies, its priority is to maintain a genuine and ongoing relationship with those who feel connected to its musical universe.
This new release opens the door to future projects. Maybe there will be new collaborations, maybe an EP will emerge, but what is clear is that Planets represents a new stage in the way they communicate, feel and share their music.
