show(ing) attitude
Acho que tem o sentido de tentar mostrar alguma superioridade, não exatamente "puxar dos galões", mas mostrar que não se tem medo e mostrar alguma arrogância. Também não é "ego trip", mas terá a ver com mostrar algo do seu ego.

I would say this is a form of slang term:

So I suggest an english slang, to match it. It is related with confidence, so "owns it" fits.

You could also use "lit" or "sick", your choice really.

Essas ocorrências que encontrei são angolanas. Como é gíria, tudo a ver com cultura e região.
