Vem Pra Mim is the fifth and final album in Portuguese by the group Menudo, released in 1993. This was the only album performed by the lineup composed of Abel Talamántez, Alexis Grullón, Andy Blázquez, Ashley Ruiz, and new member Ricky López. Ricky replaced Adrián Olivares, who decided to leave the group.
The album features 12 tracks, including Portuguese versions of songs originally recorded in Spanish by other Menudo lineups. The track "Eu Só Queria" includes a special guest appearance by Brazilian TV host Mylla Christie, known for hosting the TV show Clube da Criança on Rede Manchete. Her participation was recorded in October 1993. Additionally, two songs from the Sombras & Figuras album, released in 1988, were adapted into Portuguese: "Serenata Rock'N Roll" (also featured on the Os Ultimos Herois album released in 1990) with new lyrics, and "Gafas Oscuras."
To promote the album, Menudo appeared on Brazilian TV shows such as the Programa Sula Miranda on Record. The track "Juras De Amor" was released as a single. In 1994, the group also toured Brazil, performing in Rio de Janeiro and São Paulo.
In a report on the group and the album, Simone do Vale from the newspaper Folha de Boa Vista remarked that the album's songs are "syrupy and sentimental like those of the past." However, she emphasized that the new members' popularity compensated: "the new Menudo members are cute, charming, and intelligent.”
