“Boys Don’t Cry” by Anitta
This song finds Anitta challenging the known phrase of “Boys don’t cry”. It is often a “taboo” when boys cry as they’re supposed to be big and strong, and most importantly, not show their feelings. However, while Anitta’s suitors are chasing for her love, her constant rejections of their proposals ultimately causes them to shed off their tough exterior and cry.
Hence, she proves that boys are just as capable of crying like anyone else.
Release Date of “Boys Don’t Cry”
Anitta officially released “Boys Don’t Cry” on 27th January of 2022 as a single from her “Girl from Rio” album. This project is the Brazilian singer’s 5th studio album.
