After achieving commercial success with her debut single "Meiga e Abusada" in 2012, she signed a recording contract with Warner Music Brazil in January 2013. In July of the same year, she released her self-titled debut album which produced four successful singles and was certified platinum in Brazil. Her second studio album, Ritmo Perfeito (2014), also achieved commercial success in the country, and was accompanied by the release of her first live album Meu Lugar, on the same day. In 2015, she released her third studio album entitled Bang, which was certified platinum and spawned four successful singles "Deixa Ele Sofrer", the title track "Bang", "Essa Mina é Louca" and "Cravo e Canela". The album played a crucial role on establishing her almost dominant position in Brazilian pop music.
Between 2016 and 2018, Anitta embarked on numerous collaborations with artists such as Nile Rodgers, Maluma, Iggy Azalea, Major Lazer, Alesso and J Balvin, among others. In 2017, she released her first Spanish song "Paradinha", which catapulted her partial transition to Spanish-language Latin pop and reggaeton music. Her collaboration on the same year with Colombian singer J Balvin "Downtown", became her breakthrough song in several Spanish-speaking countries. In 2019, she joined several collaborations with artists such as Madonna, Sofía Reyes, Rita Ora, Luis Fonsi, Ozuna and Black Eyed Peas. She later received critical acclaim for her trilingual fourth studio visual album, Kisses (2019), which earned her a nomination for the Latin Grammy Award for Best Urban Music Album. In March 2022, her Spanish single "Envolver" released by late 2021, from her fifth studio album Versions of Me (2022), topped the Global Top 50 chart on Spotify, making Anitta the first Brazilian artist and the first Latin female artist with a solo song to do so.
Anitta was named by the Associação Paulista de Críticos de Arte (APCA) as the revelation of the year in music in 2013. She has received numerous accolades and several nominations at the Latin Grammy Awards, Latin American Music Awards, Billboard Latin Music Awards and Premios Lo Nuestro awards. Anitta has won five MTV Europe Music Awards for Best Brazilian Act, and became the first Brazilian artist to win the award for Best Latin American Act. In 2017, she was ranked as one of the most influential celebrities in social media according to Billboard.

Se não quiser me olhar, vira de costas
Você vai ter que aturar
Porque eu vim pra te provocar
E para de falar Blá Blá Blá
Você achou que não tinha
Nada a perder
Até que o teu beijo é bom
Mas você abaixa o tom
Você não manda em mim
Meu jogo é assim
Eu avisei que não ia mais te dar moral
A fila andou e você foi pra final
Até que o teu beijo é bom
Mas você abaixa o tom
Você não manda em mim
Meu jogo é
Até que você faz bem
Mas eu sou de ninguém
Sabe o que aconteceu
Você perdeu
Vou rebolar só porque você não gosta
Se não quiser me olhar, vira de costas
Você vai ter aturar
Porque eu vim pra te provocar
E para de falar Blá Blá Blá
Você achou que não tinha
Nada a perder
Que eu fosse boba assim pra obedecer
Até que o teu beijo é bom
Mas vê se abaixa o tom
Você não manda em mim
O jogo é assim
Eu avisei que não ia mais te dar moral
A fila andou e você foi pra final
Até que o teu beijo é bom
Mas vê se abaixa o tom
Você não manda em mim
O jogo é
Até que você faz bem
Mas eu sou de ninguém
Sabe o que aconteceu
Você perdeu
Vou rebolar só porque você não gosta
Se não quiser me olhar, vira de costas
Você vai ter aturar
Porque eu vim pra te provocar
E para de falar Blá Blá Blá
Vou rebolar só porque ah ah ah
Se não quiser me olhar ah ah ah
Você vai ter aturar ah ah ah
Porque eu vim pra te provocar
E para de falar Blá Blá Blá

Vou rebolar só porque você não gosta
I'm going to dance just because you don't like it
Se não quiser me olhar, vira de costas
If you don't want to look at me, turn your back
Você vai ter que aturar
You will have to put up with it
Porque eu vim pra te provocar
Because I came here to provoke you
E para de falar Blá Blá Blá
And stop talking nonsense
Você achou que não tinha
You thought you had nothing
Nada a perder
To lose
Se eu fosse boba assim pra obedecer
If I were stupid enough to obey
Até que o teu beijo é bom
Your kiss is good
Mas você abaixa o tom
But lower your tone
Você não manda em mim
You don't control me
Meu jogo é assim
My game is like this
Eu avisei que não ia mais te dar moral
I warned you that I wasn't going to pay you any attention anymore
A fila andou e você foi pra final
The line moved on and you ended up last in line
Até que o teu beijo é bom
Your kiss is good
Mas vê se abaixa o tom
But see if you can lower your tone
O jogo é assim
The game is like this
Até que você faz bem
You're good at it
Mas eu sou de ninguém
But I belong to no one
Sabe o que aconteceu
You know what happened
Você perdeu
You lost
Vou rebolar só porque ah ah ah
I'm going to dance just because ah ah ah
Se não quiser me olhar ah ah ah
If you don't want to look at me ah ah ah
Você vai ter que aturar ah ah ah
You will have to put up with it ah ah ah
Porque eu vim pra te provocar
Because I came here to provoke you
E para de falar Blá Blá Blá
And stop talking nonsense
