Ana Castela has never been one to stay in a single lane. The Brazilian singer, who first rose to fame blending sertanejo with contemporary beats, is now ready to step into the global pop arena. With a Grammy already in her pocket, she is taking 2025 by storm with three major projects: a pop album recorded abroad, a children’s audiovisual project, and another album embracing the deep-rooted sounds of modões.
The Evolution of a Star
Ana’s rise to fame wasn’t overnight, but it was meteoric. In 2022, her single Pipoco introduced her to mainstream audiences, merging sertanejo with funk and dance music. The song became an anthem, solidifying her as one of Brazil’s most exciting new talents. However, Ana never saw herself as just a regional artist—her dreams always extended beyond borders.
“I love sertanejo, but I also love pop,” she shared recently. “I want to explore more, experiment more, and take my music to the world stage.”
To make this a reality, Ana and her team are set to travel abroad, working with international producers to craft a pop album that showcases her versatility. The shift to pop isn’t just a musical decision; it’s a strategic move that aligns with her growing global fanbase.
From Grammy Win to International Stardom
Winning a Grammy for Boiadeira Internacional (Ao Vivo) was a defining moment for Ana. The album, recorded in the culturally rich tri-border region of Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina, proved that her music could resonate on an international scale. But Ana sees this as just the beginning.
Her producer, Everton Albertoni, believes Ana is paving the way for a new wave of Brazilian artists. “She’s not just representing Brazil—she’s opening doors for a whole new generation of musicians who want to bring our culture to the world.”
Bringing Brazilian Roots to the Pop World
While her upcoming pop album is generating buzz, Ana is equally committed to her sertanejo roots. Her second album in the modões style will keep her connected to her original fanbase, ensuring that even as she explores new sounds, she remains authentic to her origins.
Her ability to balance both worlds—honoring the past while embracing the future—is what makes Ana Castela such a unique and exciting artist. As she embarks on this new chapter, one thing is clear: the world is about to experience the full force of Ana Castela’s musical magic.
