Doce 22

{{Blockquote|text="[I want] this album to comfort you, entertain you, make you cry, make you feel sexy, make you feel anger, courage, pleasure, pain, strength. A lot of strength, preferably. May this album make you feel".|author= Sonza about the album.}}

In June 2019, Luísa Sonza released her debut album, Pandora.{{Cite web |last=Vince |first=Mariana |date=2019-06-14 |title="Pandora"; Luisa Sonza lança seu álbum de estreia |url=https://tracklist.com.br/pandora-luisa-sonza-lanca-seu-album-de-estreia/75185 |access-date=2023-05-17 |website=Tracklist |language=pt-BR}} In March 2020, after her single "Braba" reached the top 10 on Spotify, Sonza told POPline that the album "is the beginning of a new era" and which is "very different from the Pandora album".{{Cite web |date=2020-03-23 |title=No Top 10 do Spotify, Luísa Sonza fala sobre segundo álbum: 'o meu 'senta' é um 'senta' profundo' |url=https://portalpopline.com.br/no-top-10-do-spotify-luisa-sonza-fala-sobre-segundo-album-o-meu-senta-e-um-senta-profundo/ |access-date=2023-05-17 |website=POPline |language=pt-BR}} In February 2021, she revealed that she had started recording her second album.{{Cite web |date=2021-02-03 |title=Luísa Sonza entra em estúdio e inicia gravação de álbum novo |url=https://portalpopline.com.br/luisa-sonza-entra-em-estudio-e-inicia-gravacao-de-album-novo/ |access-date=2023-05-17 |website=POPline |language=pt-BR}} In April 2021, in an interview with Harper's Bazaar Brazil, she stated that the album "is the coolest thing she has ever done in her life". Later, in May 2021, talking to her fans on Instagram, she said that she "delivered everything" on the record and that it was inspired by pop divas of the 2000s. She later confirmed that the album was already done.{{Cite web |title=Luísa Sonza confirma que novo álbum está pronto após 14 meses de trabalho |url=https://www.opovo.com.br/amp/vidaearte/2021/05/31/luisa-sonza-confirma-que-novo-album-esta-pronto-apos-14-meses-de-trabalho.html |access-date=2023-05-17 |website=www.opovo.com.br}}

Initially, according to the artist herself, the album would bring the already released singles "Braba" and "Toma", in addition to new sounds. However, after the postponement of the album scheduled to be released in June – due to the massive attack received by Luísa on her social networks due to her love life – the album’s track alignment was changed and the singles were not included.19 Sonza compared the new album to Christina Aguilera's Stripped era. The singer says that one of her strongest references, and which also influenced the aesthetic part of the work, is the pop movement of the 2000s – led by names like Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera.{{Cite web |last=Oliveira |first=Leonan |date=2021-07-18 |title='DOCE 22': Luísa Sonza transforma hate em arte em novo álbum |url=https://tracklist.com.br/luisa-sonza-doce-22/110464 |access-date=2023-05-17 |website=Tracklist |language=pt-BR}} The name of the album is also inspired by the 2000s, specifically the reality show My Super Sweet 16 on MTV, which for over 10 years transformed the normal lives of teenagers into a great spectacle in the eyes of the public, similarly to what happened with Sonza, who "at the height of her 22 years, the artist saw her life and personal problems being exaggerated on the internet".

The album was expected to be released at the end of June 2021, but ended up being postponed due to the artist's removal from social networks after suffering new attacks due to her personal life.{{Cite web |title=Luísa Sonza se afasta das redes sociais e adia novo álbum após ataques |url=https://www.estadao.com.br/emais/gente/luisa-sonza-se-afasta-das-redes-sociais-e-adia-novo-album-apos-ataques/ |access-date=2023-05-16 |website=Estadão |language=pt-br}} Sonza returned to social networks on 12 July 2021, when announced the release of Doce 22. The release of the album was set for 18 July 2021, a Sunday and her birthday, since the album title alludes to the artist's age during the recording of the material and that this would be the deadline for its release ― ending at 11:55 pm.{{Cite web |date=2021-07-12 |title=Luísa Sonza anuncia lançamento do segundo álbum, 'Doce 22', para o dia em que faz 23 anos |url=https://g1.globo.com/pop-arte/musica/blog/mauro-ferreira/post/2021/07/12/luisa-sonza-anuncia-lancamento-do-segundo-album-doce-22-para-o-dia-em-que-faz-23-anos.ghtml |access-date=2023-05-16 |website=G1 |language=pt-br}} Of the 14 total tracks, three were not immediately available for strategic reasons.{{Cite web |date=2021-07-19 |title=Saiba por que Doce 22, disco de Luísa Sonza, veio com faixas faltando {{!}} Metrópoles |url=https://www.metropoles.com/entretenimento/musica/saiba-por-que-doce-22-disco-de-luisa-sonza-veio-com-faixas-faltando |access-date=2023-05-16 |website=www.metropoles.com |language=pt-BR}} The tracks leaked the following month, on August 13.{{Cite web |date=2021-08-18 |title=Músicas de Luísa Sonza com Ludmilla e Jão vazam antes do lançamento {{!}} Metrópoles |url=https://www.metropoles.com/colunas/leo-dias/musicas-de-luisa-sonza-com-ludmilla-e-jao-vazam-antes-do-lancamento |access-date=2023-05-16 |website=www.metropoles.com |language=pt-BR}}
