Lorena Urias Martins da Silva, known as Urias, was born on May 8, 1994, in Uberlândia, Minas Gerais, Brazil. She is a singer, dancer, rapper, and model who began her artistic journey through dance and theatre during childhood. In 2018, Urias started posting covers on YouTube, leading to her signing with Mataderos Projects. Her breakthrough came in 2019 with the release of her debut single "Diaba", which won Best Art Direction at the Berlin Music Video Awards. The song was part of her self-titled EP released later that year. After a run of singles, she sharpened a darker electronic palette on FÃRIA (2022), anchored by cuts like âPeligrosa,â and crossed into the global dance space via Honey Dijonâs track âEverybodyâ in 2022. Her first full album, HER MIND, arrived on June 8, 2023 and was expanded as HER MIND (Blossom Edition) on November 21 with extra songs and remixes, establishing a bilingual (Portuguese/English/Spanish) voice and a sleek, cinematic aesthetic. She kept momentum with the 2024 single âKAWASAKIâ and, in 2025, the club collaboration âPerfumeâ with Kaya Conky and S4TAN before releasing her sophomore album CARRANCA on October 7, 2025. On CARRANCA she widened her circle with Brazilian rap and MPB figuresâMajor RD guests on âVoz do Brasilâ and Criolo appears on âDeusââwhile deepening the percussive, ballroom-ready sound she cultivated on her early releases.
