Anitta will release her sixth studio album this spring.
'Funk Generation', the follow-up to 2022's 'Versions Of Me', will arrive on April 26, marking the Brazilian pop superstar's first full-length release for Republic Records and Universal Music Latin Entertainment. She said:
"'Funk Generation' is an album where I celebrate my roots. It's where I express the power of Rio's funk in every track its unique, danceable, and sensual beats. It's a rhythm born in the favelas, where I grew up, and it exudes resistance and art in every community. I'm proud to work on a project about a genre that has been unfairly stigmatized in Brazil but is slowly gaining recognition worldwide. In the album, I bring in important collaborations that helped me tell this story. I've been involved in every step of the production and visual direction, and I've achieved the result I've been aiming for."
Previewing the new record, the singer has shared the steamy Brray and Bad Gyal collaboration Double Team, which fuses funk, trap and dancefloor-ready beats produced by Botlok. Check out the single's artwork below.
The project will serve as an extension to the three-song EP, 'Funk Generation: a Favela Lovestory', which she dropped in August 2023.
