Background and release

By posting a video singing "Soltinha", by singer Priscila Nocetti, student Larissa de Macedo Machado was discovered by disc jockey (DJ) Renato Azevedo, known as Batutinha. [1] The DJ invited her to a test, in order to know if she really sang well and had a stage presence. Azevedo "was impressed by the singer's and girlfriends' ability to stiletto – a high-heeled dance mode, popularized by the American star Beyoncé", described Silvio Essinger, from O Globo . [3] With that, he decided to work with her. [3] One of the artist's complaints was her name, which she considered very common; Her suggestion was "Anita", in reference to the main character of the miniseries Presença de Anita : "Anita had a mystery that aroused the curiosity of men, women, everyone. It was just a girl, but at the same time I was fond of this joke. [3] [5] Batutinha gave the idea of "Anitta" with two T's, and the singer agreed. [3]

Anitta was hired by the Rio de Janeiro funk shows producer Furacão 2000, and through it she released four tracks: "Menina Má", "Proposta", "Fica Só Olhando" and "Eu Vou Ficar". [5] In June 2012, manager Kamilla Fialho, paid R$260,000 to the company, so that the artist could be managed by her. [2] Fialho set up a show with musicians and dancers, invested in the image of Anitta, and presented her to producers Umberto Tavares and Mãozinha. [5] Anitta was coveted by major record labels; She was "rolling up" two of them until she decided on Warner Music, with whom she signed in January 2013, and on February 6, her first single "Meiga e Abusada" was released through the label. [1]

Critical reception

Alex Alves from Popline website commented, "Grab a funk singer who was a MC from Furacão 2000, add an avalanche of references in Beyoncé and finish with a dipping attitude inspired by The Pussycat Dolls. [1] The result will be Anitta, one of the greatest promises of national pop music in 2013". [3] Some elements of the instrumental were compared to those of Major Lazer's "Pon de Floor", [6] sampled in Beyoncé's single "Run the World (Girls)". The female empowerment message of the song was also compared that of "Run the World (Girls)".

The video is all in black and white and featured a ballet body made up of 30 dancers who together form an "army."

In April 2015 it became the first video of a female Brazilian artist to reach 100 million views on YouTube. [7] [8] [9]
