Forró is a popular music genre originating from Northeastern Brazil, characterized by its upbeat rhythms and accordion-driven melodies. It is often associated with traditional dance styles such as the quadrilha and the baião. In recent years, forró has undergone a modernization with the incorporation of electronic beats and other contemporary elements. This has led to the emergence of new sub-genres such as forró universitário and forró eletrônico. The genre has gained popularity across Brazil and beyond, with many artists achieving mainstream success. (AI Generated)
