Anitta, the Brazilian pop sensation, received her first Grammy nomination. The most important international music awards are held on February 2, 2025, in Los Angeles. The category is “Best Latin Pop Album” with her sixth studio album entitled Funk Generation, released last April 2024.

Funk Generation broke new ground, becoming the first Brazilian funk album to be nominated for an international Grammy, an event of importance in the development of Brazilian popular music. This is the second nomination that Anitta received; she had been nominated in the previous year as “Best New Artist,” surprising the world with her brilliant rise.

But that’s not all: Anitta is still set to appear at another major awards show next week, the Latin Grammys. She’s a nominee for “Record of the Year” in her hit single “Mil Veces.” Latin Grammys are expected to take place on November 14 in Miami.

“I am so pleased with this win for our music,” Anitta said in a statement. “Few Brazilians have ever been nominated for an International Grammy, and it fills me with tremendous pride in all of my career. To see our funk at such an important platform is an indescribable joy. Thank you so much to my fans, team, and family! I’m so happy!

These nods from Anitta are testaments to the representation she brought into the world with Brazilian funk and drew a spotlight to her influential position as a cultural icon, and her growing influence in the worldwide music industry. The Grammy shows are watched by fans and music insiders alike in anticipation of whether Funk Generation can take home a win and further cement Anitta’s place in music history.
