16

Global superstar Anitta is making waves once again, scoring three nominations at the prestigious 2024 Premios Juventud Awards! The “Envolver” singer is up for Artist Premios Juventud® Female, The Perfect Mix – “BELLAKEO” – Peso Pluma – Anitta, and Best Urban Track – “Funk Rave.”

The ceremony takes place on July 25th at the Jose Miguel Agrelot Coliseum in Puerto Rico and will be broadcast live on Univision.

While collecting awards, Anitta is also captivating audiences across Europe with her “BAILE FUNK EXPERIENCE” tour. Launched in May, the tour has already brought the vibrant energy of funk to stages in Mexico City, the US, and Latin America.

This recognition comes as no surprise to fans who have witnessed Anitta’s meteoric rise. Since taking Brazil by storm, the Grammy-nominated artist has become a leader in the new generation of Latin music. Her 2022 single “Envolver” shattered records, becoming the biggest debut by a Brazilian artist on Spotify’s global chart and topping iTunes charts in 19 countries.

Anitta’s April 2022 release, Versions of Me, solidified her place as a global force. The genre-bending album, featuring tracks in Spanish, English, and Portuguese, held the record for the longest streaming week for a Brazilian artist on Spotify and has surpassed a billion streams on the platform. Anitta also holds the title of the first Brazilian artist with 35 million monthly Spotify listeners and boasts the most songs on the Hot 100 list by a Brazilian artist in history.

Her accomplishments extend beyond streaming numbers. In 2022, Anitta secured an MTV Music Video Award® for “Best Latin Song” with “Envolver,” etching her name in history with her second Guinness World Record: “First Brazilian soloist to win the MTV VMA for best Latin (female) song.” This victory followed a show-stopping VMA debut performance of “Envolver.”

Anitta’s reign as “Best Brazilian Actress” at the MTV Europe Music Awards spanned five consecutive years, starting in 2014. Last year, she added another MTV Music Video Award® to her collection, winning “Best Latina.”

A champion of Brazilian funk, Anitta released Funk Generation: A Favela Love Story in 2023, featuring the chart-topping single “Mil Veces.” This was followed by the massive hit “BELLAKEO” with Peso Pluma, now her most popular song on the Hot 100. To close out a phenomenal year, Anitta released “Joga pra Lua,” a fusion of funk carioca and electronic music, which was on her latest record breaking album Funk Generation.
