Over the course of Anitta’s storied career, the trilingual Brazilian star has found a way to play in a number of different genre sandboxes. On just her last two albums alone, she’s pushed boundaries as well as homegrown styles via collaborations with everyone from Becky G. and Prince Royce to Cardi B and Snoop Dogg. As its title makes clear, Funk Generation: A Favela Love Story expresses her love for baile funk across three dynamic tracks with unmistakable appeal on the dance floor as well as off. “Funk Rave” and “Casi Casi” burst with energy and hooks, while “Used to Be” tries a somewhat different tack, swelling with bass while slyly professing her changed ways.
