'Fado em Mim', Mariza's first album, was released in November 2001, and is triple platinum in Portugal. Mariza has everything to be the absolute star of the next generation fadistas.

Mariza made immediate headlines in Europe with her delightful voice and astonishing performances. She was awarded "Best voice of Fado 2000", in Portugal and according to Nuno Nazareth Fernandes, one of Portugal's greatest composers, Mariza has re-invented the fado. Mariza has everything to be the absolute star of the next generation fadistas.

'Fado em Mim', Mariza's first album, was released in November 2001, by the Dutch label World Connection and is triple platinum in Portugal. As Nuno Nazareth Fernandes, one of the Portugual´s greatest composers, describes her in the liner notes to the CD, Mariza is "someone sent by the Great Creator to reinvent Fado.". When one hears Mariza sing "Ó Gente Da Minha Terra" or "Maria Lisboa" one is convinced that Mariza, the phenomenal Portuguese singer, is taking her place among the world's greatest vocal performers.

"America has the blues, Spain has Flamenco, Argentina has the tango and the Portuguese have fado and Mariza with her amazing vocal talent. Beautifully recorded, soft and lilting, with lush Latin rhythms, 'Fado em Mim' is a definite for world and Latin fans alike. At age 27, Mariza has cemented herself as a Portuguese mega-star with this CD."
- Roger Marbeck (November 2002)
