Background

The collaboration between the artists came about after Froes went viral on social media with a video of herself singing a snippet of the original version of the song, giving Trinix the idea to remix it. [1] After its release, the track became popular on TikTok and Instagram, with users creating videos on the theme of escape. [2]

Production

The song evokes a summery vibe, blending elements of electronic music with Brazilian influences. [3] [4] It has been described as "a lush fusion of MPB-inspired melodies and sleek electronic production". [5]

The song's title is a contraction of "Vai-te embora", which translates to "go away". [6] [7] Lyrically, "Vaitimbora" contains references to Brazilian creatures such as Boitatá and Saci-Pererê. The song's hook "Arrepiou? Vai-te embora", which translates to "Do you have goosebumps? Go away!", evokes the supernatural spirits, omens and myths of the jungle that several generations have lived with. [8]
