Resumo
The present work aims to analyze the songs of singer and songwriter Belchior, from a perspective that considers the concept of anthropophagy as a decolonial alternative. Our hypothesis is to link the principle of devouring and critical reinterpretation proposed by Oswald de Andrade (1928) to the current decolonial prerogatives, which, in an effort to value Latin American identity, seek to break with European and North American hegemony in order to establish a plurality of voices and marginalized knowledge. Considering Belchior's interest in engaging with authors from both national and global literature and music, as well as his commitment to representing the socio-historical condition of Latin America, the work aims to analyze the anthropophagic appropriation gesture of the Cearan author in constructing themes such as modernity, coloniality, and decoloniality/resistance in his songs. Initially, we seek to argue theoretically in favor of modernist anthropophagy as a decolonial alternative, drawing on authors such as João Cezar de Castro Rocha (2011), Walter Mignolo (2008), and Aníbal Quijano (2005). We then present a study on the genre of the song and the Latin American movements of Nueva Canción and Nueva Trova Cubana, as well as an investigation into the life and work of Belchior and his relationship with the Tropicalist movement (Tatit, 2012; Calos, 2014; Granato, 2018). Lastly, we analyze the songs "Apenas um rapaz latino-americano" (1976), "A palo seco" (1974), "Baihuno" (1993), and "Quinhentos anos de quê?" (1993), with the aim of recognizing, in the literary-musical discourse of the Northeastern singer and songwriter, anthropophagic and decolonial perspectives committed to the celebration of otherness and transcultural dialogue
