Funk Generation is the sixth studio album by Brazilian singer Anitta. It was released on 26 April 2024, through Floresta Records, Republic Records and Universal Latin Entertainment. The album features guest appearances from Brray, Bad Gyal, Dennis, Pedro Sampaio and Sam Smith. It is her third trilingual album after Kisses (2019) and Versions of Me (2022).
Funk Generation was met with positive reviews upon release, being praised for Anitta's experimentation with the album's genre, the revival of funk's cultural roots and the artist's ability to experiment with the genre's limits, although some pointed out that her variation in styles may sound disjointed to listeners more accustomed to a uniform approach. The track "Mil Veces", one of the album's singles, won Best Latin Video at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards and was nominated for Record of the Year at the 25th Latin Grammy Awards, where it also received a nomination for Best Portuguese-Language Urban Performance for the track "Joga Pra Lua". Both songs won the TVZ Music Video of the Year and Funk of the Year categories, respectively, at the 2024 Multishow Brazilian Music Awards, where Anitta was the first person to be honored with the Vanguarda Trophy. Funk Generation received a nomination for Best Latin Pop Album at the 67th Annual Grammy Awards, becoming the first funk album in history to be nominated for a Grammy.
It was named by Billboard and People as one of the best Latin albums and one of the best albums of the year, respectively.
