Brazil is a large, diverse country with a long history of popular-musical development, ranging from the early-20th-century innovation of [[samba]] to the modern ''[[Música popular brasileira]]''. [[Bossa nova]] is internationally well-known, and [[Forró]] (pronounced {{IPA|pt|foˈʁɔ|}}) is also widely known and popular in Brazil. Lambada is influenced by rhythms like cumbia and merengue. [[Funk carioca]] (also known as Brazilian funk) is also a highly popular style, including tamborzão rhythms.<ref>{{Cite web |last=Naomi |date=2018-05-30 |title=Straight Out of the Favela: Brazilian Funk |url=https://www.newsroom.spotify.com/2018-05-30/straight-out-of-the-favela-brazilian-funk/ |access-date=2023-10-23 |website=Spotify |language=en-US}}</ref>
