Vai Anitta, the Netflix docuseries that chronicles the life of one of Brazil’s pre-eminent pop stars, opens with an attempt to boil down the enormity of the 26-year-old’s popularity into a quick-fire montage. Layered over footage of weeping fans and hordes of frenetically bopping concert-goers are the stats: Anitta has over 2.6bn video views; she is the most streamed Brazilian artist on Spotify in Brazil; all of her singles have topped the country’s radio charts. Yet despite her standing in the Portuguese-speaking world, Anitta remains relatively unknown in the UK. It’s a position that seems less tenable by the day in light of the cresting wave of Latin pop that has recently made its presence felt in the charts on both sides of the Atlantic, and Kisses, Anitta’s fourth album, seems expressly designed to chivvy along her breakthrough. Sung in a mixture of Portuguese, Spanish and English, it is her first to feature US stars – as keen, no doubt, for an introduction to Anitta’s staggering South American audience as she is to capitalise on their household names.
Some of these business-minded mergers are more successful than others. On Onda Diferente, Snoop Dogg supplies a rap that manages to be both extremely lazy and unsettlingly pervy, while Rae Sremmurd’s Swae Lee parachutes his mellifluous Auto-Tuned vocal into Poquito, a cookie-cutter pop song with little staying power. Other songs, such as the Becky G-assisted Banana, contain more character. A riot of hyperactive production and absurd innuendo, the track provides a vehicle for Anitta’s assertive sex-positivity, as well as some hilarious lyrics (“Oh Willy Wonka, how you get so tasty? / Mama made a boy but she should have made a pastry”). This palpable personality doesn’t make its presence felt on every song, however, and the fact that Kisses tends to cleave closely to the Latin pop template – it’s built on funk-laden grooves and flickering trap beats, with shades of reggaeton thrown in – makes Kisses an album that feels more like a crowdpleasing sign of the times than a particularly thrilling proposition in its own right.
