Big issue on Spotify categories Funk is in fact Funk carioca(Funk from Brazil) and not real FUNK

[michieru]

Hi team, I am not able to find Funk category on Spotify, unfortunately when I go to categories I found a Funk, however it is a Funk Carioca(Funk from Brazil) what there is nothing related to real Funk.

I don't know if this is only an issue to me or spotify is thinking the Funk from Brazil(Funk Carioca) is similar with real Funk. I so disappointed not find the correct category. Your competitor(Deez...) had the same problem in the past.

Could you please provide me more details?

My Question or Issue

Now I find some real Funk songs on Soul category, my recommendation is change the name Soul to Soul and Funk, and maybe Funk to Funk Carioca or Funk Brasil.
