BESO (part. Rauw Alejandro)

The song 'BESO' by ROSALÍA, featuring Rauw Alejandro, is a passionate expression of love and desire. The lyrics convey a deep yearning for the physical and emotional connection that comes with a lover's kiss. The repeated line 'Ya yo necesito otro beso' which translates to 'I need another kiss,' underscores the intensity of the singer's longing. The kiss is depicted as a source of peace, contrasting with the torment of separation, described as 'el infierno' or 'hell.'

ROSALÍA's verses are rich with imagery and emotion, painting a picture of a love that is both grounding and exhilarating. The mention of 'tabaco y melón' (tobacco and melon) and 'domingo en la ciudad' (Sunday in the city) evokes a sensory experience that is intimately tied to the presence of the loved one. The song also touches on themes of time and the cosmos, suggesting that the singer's love is so powerful it could bend time and 'amarrar' (tie up) the sky itself. This hyperbolic language emphasizes the transformative nature of their love.

The collaboration with Rauw Alejandro adds a layer of complexity to the song, as both artists are known for their unique styles that blend elements of reggaeton, Latin pop, and urban music. The interplay between their voices and the rhythmic beat creates a dynamic and sensual atmosphere that complements the song's theme of passionate love and the ache of separation when the lover is not near.
