Back with a whole lot of heat, record-breaking international superstar Anitta unleashes a brand new three-song bundle entitled Funk Generation: A Favela Story.

Anitta paved the way for Funk Generation: A Favela Love Story with the international banger “Funk Rave.” It is already approaching 25 million Spotify streams in addition to nearly 15 million YouTube views on the music video. Right out of the gate, Variety hailed it as “joyful,” and Rolling Stone dubbed it “vibrant, upbeat.”

The bundle includes two brand new tracks “Casi Casi” and “Used To Be” which will be accompanied by music videos that will tell how the three-part story unfolds.

In this project I dive into carioca funk. The rhythm that raised me and is part of the culture from where I was born. In the visuals, there is a lot of what I’ve experienced in the favelas. Apart from international producers, I made a point of bringing Brazilians to this incredible team. Their contribution was essential. The videos work individually, but they are also a trilogy! You’ll need to watch all three to understand the outcome! It looks beautiful, fun, colorful and amusing!

Thanks to Anitta, it’s officially the Funk Generation…
