ANITTA “MIL VECES” NEW SINGLE & VIDEO OUT NOW

Misunderstandings, breakups and comebacks – the often vicious cycle of the ups and downs of relationships are the subject of Anitta’s highly anticipated new song, “Mil Veces“. The track and music video are out now via Republic Records/UMLE and are part of her highly anticipated forthcoming album Funk Generation.

“We’ve gone through this a thousand times,” sings Anitta, about a problematic and passionate relationship, which is hard to end. “This is an incredible song! I love the attractive pop notes of its lyrics, which talk about a relationship that wasn’t meant to last but continues on and on experiencing ups and downs. It is crazy… it’s a relationship dynamic that many people have already experienced. I think “Mil Veces” will relate to many people,” says Anitta.

“Mil Veces” is a melodic funk, a sub genre of the Rio de Janeiro funk characterized by more lyrical and romantic content and a softer and melodic musical production. This is not by coincidence, as this sound aesthetic resembles Anitta’s early work in songs like “Meiga e Abusada” and “Eu Vou Ficar.”

To fully capture this Brazilian identity, Anitta was determined to bring producers from her native country for the production of her ‘Funk Generation’ album. As is the case with DJ Gabriel do Borel, who worked in the composition and production of the new song. Born in the northern part of the city of Rio de Janeiro, he has an important presence in this new album, as he’s responsible for the arrangement of all the songs from the project revealed to date. Brazilian Marcio Arantes and producer JULiA LEWiS, who has worked with Bad Bunny and Peso Pluma, also collaborated in the production of “Mil Veces.”  

The video for the song features a special appearance from Damiano David, vocalist of the chart-topping rock band, Måneskin, who plays Anitta’s significant other. “This video is really sexy! Sexy, dynamic, and it has a beautiful aesthetic… working with Damiano, who is endearing and has become a true friend, was incredible. I loved the end result and hope everyone likes it” –Anitta.

Together they played intense moments that illustrate the turbulent and emotional atmosphere narrated in “Mil Veces.” The video was directed by Jackson Tisi, a cinematographer known for his collaborations with Pharrell Williams, J Balvin and León Bridges. 

“Mil Veces” marks Anitta’s first release since ‘A Favela Love Story,’ which garnered a 2023 VMA for “Best Latin” for “Funk Rave“.
