The album Herança’s historical dimensions and rich, quasi-biographical Cape-Verdean cultural vein are intrinsically linked to the tracks 'Goree', 'Herança' (superbly produced by Naná Vasconcelos) and 'Cidade Velha', written by Mario Lúcio. These three subtly poetic songs describe the miraculous journey of the Cape-Verdean people, shaped in mid-Atlantic by a chemistry of different populations, cultures and traditions, and diverse dreams, variances, sufferings and hopes. Mario Lúcio – musician, composer, poet, musicologist and currently the Republic of Cape Verde’s Minister of Culture – also wrote 'Mantenha Cudado' and 'X da Questão', which reflect the impulsive, mischievous, sensual nature of Cape Verdeans.
