Según Quién (feat. Carin Leon)

Maluma's 'Según Quién (feat. Carin Leon)' is a song that delves into the aftermath of a breakup, addressing the rumors and gossip that often follow. The lyrics express the protagonist's frustration with the false information being spread about his emotional state post-breakup. Maluma, a Colombian singer known for his reggaeton and Latin pop music, often incorporates themes of love, heartbreak, and personal experiences into his songs, and this track is no exception.

The song begins with the protagonist tired of the 'he said, she said' that surrounds him. He asserts that while there was love in the past, it no longer exists for the person in question. This sets the tone for a narrative of moving on and refuting the claims that he is still hung up on his ex. The repeated questions '¿Según quién?' (According to whom?) challenge the source of these rumors, emphasizing the disconnect between what is being said and the protagonist's actual feelings.

Maluma's lyrics also touch on themes of self-worth and moving forward. The mention of having someone new ('un culo inédito') who is with him by choice rather than necessity ('Tú estaba' por la de crédito') suggests a newfound confidence and a desire to leave the past behind. The song's catchy chorus and the blend of Maluma's smooth vocals with Carin Leon's contribute to a track that is not only a statement against gossip but also an anthem of empowerment and self-assurance. The use of colloquial language and vivid imagery, such as buying 'papel higiénico' (toilet paper) for the ex's 'shit' talk, adds a raw and humorous edge to the song, showcasing Maluma's ability to connect with his audience on a personal level.
