Music Review: Anitta welcomes listeners into her ‘Funk Generation’ on new album

First, Anitta took over Brazil. Now, the world. The trilingual Brazilian pop star has returned with a new album, the club-to-bedroom ready “Funk Generation.” It is an infectious collection of dance songs celebrating a once maligned genre that also manages to experiment beyond its confines. But those searching for more mainstream pop music should look elsewhere.

Anitta’s Musical Journey

Anitta is arguably Brazil’s most recognizable global pop singer since Astrud Gilberto sang “The Girl From Ipanema” nearly 60 years ago. When her 2022 album “Versions of Me” dropped, she was already a superstar known for blending Brazilian sounds with various genres.

Celebrating Brazilian Funk

“Funk Generation” is Anitta’s tribute to Brazilian funk, a genre that combines Brazilian rhythms, African and electronic music, and rap. The album is a testament to the power of music in storytelling and bringing about change.

Track Highlights

  • “Lose Ya Breath” – A blend of heavy sighs, cheery chants, and nylon string guitars.
  • “Funk Rave” – An energetic mix of euro-pop vibes.
  • “Fria” – Latin R&B-pop influences.
  • “Double Team” – A provocative electro-funk single featuring Brray and Bad Gyal.
  • “Savage Funk” – A track with provocative lyrics that deliver on its title.

Anitta’s Vision

When “Funk Generation” was announced, Anitta expressed that the album celebrates her roots and the unique beats of Rio’s funk. It’s a rhythmic journey born in the favelas, exuding resistance and art in every community.

Conclusion

Anitta’s “Funk Generation” is a fusion of global sounds that showcases Brazil’s party spirit. It’s an album made for late nights on the dance floor, embracing the essence of Brazilian funk while pushing musical boundaries.
