In 1996, she moved back to Salvador and played in various garage bands. She was vocalist of the hardcore band Inkoma, and released several albums with the band. When Inkoma broke up, she was invited by producer Rafael Ramos to record her first solo album, Admirável Chip Novo, which was released in 2003.
Admirável Chip Novo sold more than 250,000 copies, being certified Platinum. The singles "Máscara", "Admirável Chip Novo" and "Teto de Vidro" were successful in Brazil, and "Equalize" hit number one. The album title was inspired by Aldous Huxley's Brave New World (translated to Portuguese as "Admirável Mundo Novo").
After Admirável Chip Novo, the expectations for Pitty's second album were high. Her second album, Anacrônico is heavier and more daring than its predecessor. It sold more than 150,000 (Platinum). During an interview around the release of her second album, Pitty and her band said that they had listened to too much Queens of the Stone Age while recording the album. The influence is clear, especially in the heavy and slow songs, "lightly and tireless feeling of Josh Homme stand in air".
Her biggest hits are "Admirável Chip Novo", "Equalize", "Máscara", "Memórias", "Na sua Estante" and "Pulsos".
Aahhh...!
Pitty Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Puxo o ar com força e nada acontece
Tá tudo travado, ficou complicado
Daqui a pouco estouro feito um balão
Se o ar que vem do meu pulmão não é suficiente
Eu tô sufocando, preciso falar
Tá tudo tão rarefeito e eu longe de ser perfeito
Sopro, apnéia, falta de ar
Sopro, apnéia, falta de ar
Sopro, apnéia, falta de ar
Aahhh...!
The lyrics to Pitty's song "Aahhh...!" evoke feelings of frustration and desperation. The first verse paints a picture of someone who is trying to speak up but is unable to do so because they feel like they are suffocating. The imagery of "abro bem a boca, puxo o ar com força e nada acontece" (I open my mouth wide, I take a deep breath and nothing happens) conveys a sense of helplessness and despair. The following verse continues in a similar vein, with the repetition of the phrases "sopro, apnéia, falta de ar" (breath, apnea, lack of air) emphasizing the central theme of struggling to breathe and communicate.
The chorus, with its guttural yell of "aahhh...!" adds an emotional catharsis to the song. It's a release of pent-up frustration, letting out a primal scream that captures the essence of the struggle described in the verses. The repetition of the chorus reinforces the idea that the struggle is ongoing and constant, and that the release provided by the yell is only temporary.
Overall, "Aahhh...!" is a song that captures the struggle to communicate in a world that often makes it difficult to do so. It's a song about feeling trapped and suffocated, but also about finding moments of release and freedom through self-expression.

Abro bem a boca
I open my mouth wide
Puxo o ar com força e nada acontece
I breathe in forcefully, but nothing happens
Tá tudo travado, ficou complicado
Everything is blocked, it became complicated
Daqui a pouco estouro feito um balão
Soon I'll burst like a balloon
Se o ar que vem do meu pulmão não é suficiente
If the air coming from my lungs is not enough
Eu tô sufocando, preciso falar
I'm suffocating, I need to speak
Tá tudo tão rarefeito e eu longe de ser perfeito
Everything is so thin, and I am far from perfect
