"Envolver" is written by Anitta herself with co-writers Cristian Andrés Salazar, Julio Manuel González and José Cruz with Freddy Montalvo, who also produced the song
The lyrics show that they are not looking for anything serious, but only temporary pleasure. The chorus warns the romantic interest not to get too attached and "envolver" (wrap up) in the relationship, as the narrator knows that they will eventually return. The song encourages a carefree attitude towards sex and relationships with lyrics such as "Sexo y alcohol, lo que pase aquí se va a quedar" (Sex and alcohol, what happens here will stay). The bridge depicts a willingness to engage in intimate acts and a desire for the partner to remember their time together.
An official music video, directed by Anitta herself, was published on November 12 2021 through her YouTube channel, which amassed over 670 MILLION views as of March 8th 2024. It’s the most viewed video by a female Brazilian act.
The music video went viral in March 2022, after it gained popularity on TikTok, where its "booty-grinding" dance became one of the most replicated.
Anitta became the first female Latin act to reach the top spot on Spotify’s Global Chart as "Envolver" went on to peak with 7.2 MILLION streams in a single day. It also broke the record for most one-day streams in Brazil with over 4.5 million plays, a record that was previously held by her own "Vai Malandra" with 2.1 MILLION streams.
Additionally it also became the first song ever to place inside the top 50 of all Latin countries on Spotify, reach the top spot on Billboard’s Global 200 Excl. US chart & to win a MTV Video Music Award.
Due to the success of the song in the United States Anitta got nominated for the “Best New Artist”Award at the GRAMMY’s making her the first Brazilian artist to get nominated in “The Big 4” categories in over 50 years.

Si tú me desea' y yo a ti también
Hace rato te quiero comer
Di qué va' a hacer
Así que ponme un dembow, que ese no respeta
Tengo pa' ti la combi completa
Que no duro mucha soltera
Y no te vaya a envolver
Sé que lo hacemo' y tú va' a volver (volver)
Un perreito en la pared
Yo soy un caso que hay que resolver
Pero no te vaya a envolver
Sé que lo hacemo' y tú va' a volver (volver)
Un perreito pa' bellaquear
Pega'ito a la pared (pega'ito a la pared)
Botelleo y fumeteo
Contigo en un capsuleo
Porque siempre que te veo
Tú me quiere' perrear
Y yo quiero partirte
Cógelo a chiste
Y en cinco minuto' ya va' a venirte
Me tienes como pa' derretirte
Solo Dios sabe lo que me hiciste
Cógelo a chiste
Y en cinco minuto' ya va' a venirte
Me tiene' como pa' derretirte
Solo Dios sabe lo que me hiciste
Y no te vaya a envolver (volver)
Sé que lo hacemo' y tú va' a volver (volver)
Un perreíto en la pared
Yo soy un caso que hay que resolver
Pero no te vaya a envolver
Sé que lo hacemo' y tú va' a volver (volver)
Un perreíto pa' bellaquear
Pega'ito a la pared (pega'ito a la pared)
Sexo y alcohol
Lo que pase, aquí se va quedar
Yo sé que no me vas a olvidar
Si te hago el amor, si te hago el amor
Sexo y alcohol
Lo que pase, aquí se va quedar (quedar)
Yo sé que no me vas a olvidar
Si te hago el amor, si te hago el amor
Y no te vaya a envolver
Sé que lo hacemo' y tú va' a volver (volver)
Un perreíto en la pared
Yo soy un caso que hay que resolver
Pero no te vaya a envolver
Sé que lo hacemo' y tú va' a volver (volver)
Un perreíto pa' bellaquear
Pega'ito a la pared
Botelleo y fumeteo
Contigo en un capsuleo
Porque siempre que te veo (oh-oh)
Tú me quieres perrear
Y yo quiero partirte
Botelleo y fumeteo
Contigo en un capsuleo
Porque siempre que te veo
Tú me quieres perrear
Y yo quiero partirte
Dime cómo hacemos
Si tú me deseas y yo a ti también
Hace rato te quiero comer
Di qué va' a hacer
The lyrics to Anitta's song "EnvolveR" are quite explicit, and describe the sexual tension between two people. The singer is telling her partner to put on some dembow music and take advantage of her physically. She tells him to not hesitate and not to get too attached, but also not to forget their moments together. The lyrics are explicit and describe the physical act of sex in detail, making it clear that the singer wants nothing more than sexual satisfaction. She also mentions the use of alcohol and drugs which brings everything to a more risqué level.
The song speaks to modern pop music trends, which use sexually explicit lyrics and beats to catch the listener's attention. It does, however, have an underlying theme about the pitfalls of sex without love, something that has become a topic of discussion in recent years. Overall, the song is fun, flirty and very contemporary in the way it presents its ideas about sexuality and sexual satisfaction.
