Hello, dear readers!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Even though the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">folia <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(revelry) from Carnaval is unfortunately over now, the major hits that have been playing regularly throughout the celebration still have a lasting hold on its <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ouvintes<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (listeners). If you weren\u2019t able to spend your Carnaval days enjoying the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">festa<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (party) here in Brazil, you can still have a taste of the catchy music that blasted through the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">ruas<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (streets) during those days. Today\u2019s post will show you the biggest summer sensations in Brazilian popular music. And if you care to sing along to the beat, I\u2019ll include a link to the lyrics of each work so you can follow. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You should also know that, as Carnaval favorites, these are mostly funk and pop songs tipically about dancing, casual relationships, fun, slang, sensuality and moving your <em>corpo<\/em> (body). Regardless of the musical genre you are into, it is always important to get to know what involves people, because entertainment is also part of a culture! Got your moves on? Let\u2019s hit it!<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center\"><b>Vai Malandra<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We have already discussed the pop phenomenon Anitta in previous posts, so it should come as no surprise that her single <\/span><b>Vai Malandra <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(Go Bad Girl) is at the the top charts in Brazil. <em>Filmado<\/em> (shot) by renowned (albeit blacklisted) photographer Terry Richardson and featuring names like the american rapper Maejor, the <em>Vai Malandra<\/em> video was <em>gravado<\/em> (recorded) at Morro do Vidigal, a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">favela<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (slum) in Rio de Janeiro, exposing the realities in the country (including Anitta\u2019s cellulite). The video <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">got a lot of positive reaction from fans, but what draws the most attention in it is the insulating tape bikini she wears. The acessory is a new tendency among sunbathers to achieve better defined tan lines and is now even more popularized by our ambitious diva.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Anitta, Mc Zaac, Maejor feat.

The <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">m\u00fasica<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (song), now one of the top listened to on Spotify, instantly went viral and became a meme upon its <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">lan\u00e7amento <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(release), rising the curvy<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and remarkable<\/span> <i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">cantora <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(singer) <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0&#8211; who was, by the way, also in Anitta\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Vai Malandra<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> video &#8211;\u00a0<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">to the condition of a <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">estrela<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> (star) overnight. Social media went crazy over the song, as people &#8211; including celebrities &#8211; posted videos of themselves dropping to the ground, simulating being hit<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> as the song <em>toca<\/em> (plays) the sound of gunshots. Some people even got fired for doing it at work!
