Claudia Leitte is denounced by the public prosecutor of Bahia for having modified the lyrics of a song so as not to mention religions of African origin. In this action, the organization asks the singer to pay 2 million reais for religious discrimination.
Before the trial opened, Claudia Leitte did everything she could to “clean up her image” and leave her bad reputation behind her. In the new album Especiarias, the singer refers to different types of faith and seeks a rapprochement with religions of African origin.

In the single A Chave, she sings: “On your knees or standing, amen for those who are amen, focused for those who are focused. Love above all and faith, for all, faith.” According to the artist, the aim of the new work is to create music that causes transformations.
In another recent statement, to Flow Podcast, the artist clarified that there were no longer any contradictions between the evangelical faith and the musical work linked to a carnival full of pluralities.
“There have been (contradictions). But it’s a lot of questioning, including. For yourself. Because it makes you stay more where you need to stay. In your faith. It’s a really crazy thing, because it’s from now. And I’ve been a Christian much longer. We work. It’s our job. And our culture too. It’s my culture,” she said.
Despite attempts to put aside accusations of religious discrimination in 2025, Claudia Leitte was prosecuted. She will be responsible for changing a verse of the song Caranguejo, in 2024.
The singer replaced the section “Hailing Queen Iemanjá” with “I sing to my King Yeshua”. According to the MP-BA, as noted by columnist Lucas Pasin, the exchange motivated the organization’s legal initiative.
