Playful, confident, unstoppable – that is the mood Anitta serves in “Meiga e Abusada.” The lyrics paint a picture of a woman who knows exactly how to mix sweetness (meiga) with boldness (abusada). She flirts, she teases, and she effortlessly pulls the strings of a suitor who thinks he can win her over. With a lighthearted, almost theatrical charm, Anitta flips the traditional script: she is the one in control, treating the guy like a harmless toy while he believes he is about to conquer her heart.
More than a simple flirtation anthem, the song bursts with female empowerment. Anitta celebrates her power to attract, command, and walk away on her own terms. She enjoys the game, but the rules are hers alone: “Homem do teu tipo eu uso, mas se chega lá eu digo não” (A man like you I use, but when it gets that far I say no). It is a catchy reminder that confidence can be both gentle and daring, and that true control lies in knowing what you want – and having fun while everyone else tries to keep up.
