The Brazilian was recognized as the “first solo Latin artist to reach number one on Spotify”.
After accumulating 6.39 million streams, “Envolver” surpassed the song “Heat Waves”, by the band Glass Animals, and remained for two days at the top of the ranking of the largest music streaming platform in the world.
On the record page on the Guinness website, the institution recognizes that other Latin artists even reached the top of the “most listened”, but always in partnerships.
“Collaborations of Latin artists like Luis Fonsi and Daddy Yankee (“Despacito”), J Balvin (“Mi Gente”, feat. Willy William), Bad Bunny (“Dákiti”, feat. Jhay Cortez) and Camila Cabello (“Havana” and “Señorita”, feat. Young Thug and Shawn Mendes, respectively) had already conquered chart-topping tracks on Spotify’s Global Top 200”, pointed out Guinness.
“But “Girl from Rio” Anitta was the first solo Latin artist – and the first Brazilian – to reach number 1”, he added.
