Gabby B Opens the First Chapter of Funklândia With New EP 'Funklândia: Rooted'
The seven-track project blends global pop, Latin fusion and Brazilian funk in a personal return to the sounds and culture that shaped the multilingual artist.
MIAMI, FL, UNITED STATES, June 24, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- International pop-funk artist Gabby B releases her new EP, Funklândia: Rooted, a seven-track project that marks both a return to her Brazilian foundations and the beginning of an expansive new creative universe built around music, movement, culture and identity.
Born in Brazil and raised across France, Canada and the United States, Gabby has spent much of her life moving between countries, languages and musical influences. Rather than separating those different parts of her identity, Funklândia: Rooted brings them together, placing the energy and rhythm of Brazilian funk at the center of a sound shaped equally by mainstream pop, Latin influences, and Gabby’s multicultural journey.
The EP serves as the first official chapter of Funklândia, an evolving world where music functions as its own language and every song introduces a different mood, location and dimension. As its title suggests, Rooted establishes the project’s foundation, reflecting the sounds, memories and cultural influences that first shaped Gabby while creating room for the universe to expand through future releases.
“Rooted is about reconnecting with the part of me that has always been there,” said Gabby B. “Brazilian funk is part of the culture I grew up around and part of the way I naturally express myself through music and movement. I have lived in different countries and been influenced by so many sounds, but this project brings everything back to where it began. It is the foundation of Funklândia and the most authentic introduction to the world I am creating.”
The seven-track EP combines three previously released singles with four new songs, allowing listeners to experience the full range of its first chapter for the first time.
The rollout began with “Faz Assim,” a Portuguese-language collaboration with Brazilian artist MC Xangai and producer DJ Biel Bolado. Driven by a fast baile funk rhythm, playful vocal exchanges and an infectious call-and-response hook, the song introduced the project’s rawer Brazilian energy and connected Gabby directly with artists working within the contemporary funk scene.
Gabby followed with “No Te Canses,” a multilingual club track that moves fluidly between Spanish, Portuguese and English. Centered on dance, chemistry and movement, the single reflects Gabby’s ability to merge cultures without losing the rhythm and personality at the heart of the project.
The final pre-release single, “Nível Hard,” produced by DJ Biel Bolado in collaboration with Brazilian funk label Love Funk, revealed a more intimate and late-night side of the Funklândia universe. Its smooth production, melodic vocals and sensual energy expanded the project beyond its most explosive dance moments and demonstrated the emotional and sonic range of Rooted.
The complete EP introduces four additional tracks: “Pedrada”; “Toxic,” featuring Imen, which brings a collaborative dimension to the record; “Naked”; and “É Minha Vida,” which brings the first chapter to a personal conclusion rooted in ownership, identity and self-expression.
Together, the songs move through confidence, attraction, vulnerability, celebration and cultural pride, presenting Funklândia not simply as a collection of tracks, but as a world audiences can enter and continue discovering.
