The story of ‘Perra Melancolica’, the song that Karol G is obsessed with

Music news

There are songs that we listen to once and they completely captivate us. Songs that either represent the moment in our lives we are going through or their rhythms have something special that hypnotizes us (or both).

Be that as it may, this is what has happened to Karol G with Melancholic Bitchthe song by La Guru that she shared through her Instagram Stories a few days ago. “WOW! I’ve been playing this song on repeat for a week!! Female talent from Colombia. Cancionsota!! How proud!” said Bichota. Her compatriot responded with “Queen Karol G listening to the songs. We manifested it, we made it real.”

But, What story does this song hide that fuses bolero rhythms with R&B? We tell you.

Melancholic Bitch It brings us closer to the story of a woman who is going through a breakup. You don’t want to bend and break emotionally in front of that toxic person who has been involved in this last stage of your life.Melancholic Bitch conceptualizes those moments of existential break through overwhelming manifestations in which the human being, almost always, reveals emotions referring to frustrating loves”, says the La Guru company in a statement.

On this occasion, La Guru has been inspired by the figure of femme fataleand proof of this is also in the video clip that accompanies the launch.

The Colombian artist has been in the industry for ten years. He began to be interested in it thanks to jazz, soul, reggae and other Latin folk rhythms. Drawing on all of them, she presented her project with a most seductive and hypnotizing fusion. Of course, Each of her releases is accompanied by a message of female empowerment that has inspired many and with which she has shown that we should not fall into the temptation of toxicity or undervaluing women.

All this coincides with the concept that Karol G has been presenting in this latest musical stage, so it does not surprise us that Melancholic Bitch has become your favorite soundtrack lately. And you, would you like La Guru and La Bichota to collaborate together on the same song? As the first of them reveals, perhaps “manifesting it” will come true.

This is the letter of Melancholic Bitch:

(Verse 1)

I’m a melancholic bitch

Cursed the day you told me

you will be the only one

Look at the mess you’ve left

And I became an alcoholic

I almost fell into a volcano of toxic shit

It sounds ridiculous

And if I could I would repeat

My head is screwed

I don’t have a prescription for these pills

If butterflies don’t tickle

Maybe they’re just moths.

And I’ve gotten so crazy without you

(Verse 2)

It’s eleven past eleven

And there is nothing magical about this

Once again they failed me

It’s the last time I check it

frozen feelings

An eternity, of loneliness, and the truth

Better so than anxiety

Seeing that you don’t answer me

I see you online but you don’t respond

Bottles rain to clear the mind

Another Friday I get crazy

Uploading stories with strangers

It’s hard for me to pretend that I forget you

It’s hard for me to accept that I always lose

You ignore me the most and I love you the most

You lie to me the more and I believe you the more

You are braking while I accelerate

(Chorus)

And if love knocks on my door again

I let him in to have fun

We’re going to burn it all until there’s nothing left

You were everything to me and I was nothing to you

And if love knocks on my door again

I let him in to have fun

We’re going to burn it all until there’s nothing left

There is nothing left

(Verse 3)

You found someone perfect

I don’t connect with anyone

I don’t even know what I feel anymore

There is no end to this story

at dawn

you didn’t arrive

cold bed

how much I loved you

you got involved

and I cried

What I did to you

was not bought

(Bridge)

And if karma exists, why are you happy?

You tell the world that you are better now

Dying what’s left of me

Tell me, where am I?

I prefer to take the street than walk alone, uhh, uhh

(Chorus)

And if love knocks on my door again

I let him in to have fun

We’re going to burn it all until there’s nothing left

You were everything to me and I was nothing to you

And if love knocks on my door again

I let him in to have fun

We’re going to burn it all until there’s nothing left

There is nothing left

oh
