Titica is a pioneer in a local music genre called kuduro and her accomplishments include performing for José Eduardo dos Santos, a previous Angolan President.
Her appointment as UNAIDS Goodwill Ambassador came at a time when many acknowledge Angola as tipping from being a rigid anti-LGBTI state to one where there is social recognition and acceptance of the presence of transgender persons such as Titica albeit the state’s penal code still outlawing homosexuality.
