Embracing Power, Identity and Religion: Anitta's 'Aceita'

The song "Aceita" by Anitta is a vibrant celebration of female empowerment and personal authenticity. The lyrics reflect the singer's journey from her humble beginnings in the favela to achieving global success, highlighting her independence and strength as a woman in the entertainment industry and manager of her own career.

Anitta uses a mix of Portuguese, Spanish, and English in the song, which not only showcases her linguistic versatility but also symbolizes her ability to transcend cultural boundaries and connect with a global audience. The repetition of the phrase "I don't think you know cómo me llaman a mí" (I don't think you know what they call me) serves as a challenge to those who underestimate her or fail to recognize her true identity, power, and influence.

Furthermore, the artist references her luxurious lifestyle and achievements in the industry, mentioning her personal relationship with iconic fashion figures like Donatella Versace and her performances at major festivals like Coachella. These mentions are not just to flaunt her success, but to emphasize that despite the adversities, she has remained true to herself and controlled her own narrative, inspiring others to accept and celebrate their own stories and identities.

Following this logic, the singer sought to express her identity once again by bringing references to various religions in the music video, with a focus on her own religion, Candomblé. This way, Anitta demonstrates her sympathy for all types of faith, even though she has a specific religion. She also exalts her doctrine and shows rituals from her daily life as a practitioner, breaking down the barriers of intolerance that still exist today.
