Background and development
Diplo of Major Lazer has always been one of the great supporters of Brazilian funk and Brazilian music. He had previously worked on songs by DJ Marlboro, and even signed the musical group Bonde do Rolê to his label Mad Decent, along with producing songs by Banda Uó and Pabllo Vittar. He says: "I always try to know what happens in Brazil, it's important for me."
While in Brazil for Lollapalooza, in 2016, with his group project Jack Ü with Skrillex, he met singer Anitta, and handed her a demo of what would later become the track. In February 2017, Diplo posted a reply on his Twitter, about a possible collaboration with the singer, simply stating "soon". Anitta announced the collaboration on Instagram Live. Anitta and Pabllo Vittar performed a photoshoot on May 21 for the single's cover.
