Unmasking Disrespect in 'Que Grosero'

The song 'Que Grosero' by Ultrasónicas, a Mexican all-female punk rock band, is a raw and unapologetic expression of anger and disillusionment towards someone who has betrayed the singer's trust. The lyrics convey a strong message of disappointment and resentment, as the singer addresses someone who has not only lied to her but also spoken ill of her behind her back. The use of the phrase 'Qué grosero,' which translates to 'How rude,' is a direct call-out of the person's disrespectful behavior.

The song's chorus, which repeats the insult 'Qué grosero,' emphasizes the singer's contempt and the forgiveness she offers, which is laced with sarcasm, as she refers to the person as a 'pobre pordiosero' (poor beggar). This suggests that the singer sees the person as beneath her, not worthy of her time or genuine forgiveness. The repeated lines 'Vales madre, sí, sí, vales verga' are Mexican slang expressions of insult, further underscoring the depth of the singer's disdain.

The song also touches on themes of self-worth and sexual autonomy. The singer asserts that she is not someone to be taken lightly and that her affection is not easily won. The line 'No es que yo no sea una puta' (It's not that I'm not a whore) is a defiant reclaiming of her sexuality, indicating that she has control over her choices and who she becomes involved with. The song, therefore, serves as a powerful statement of self-respect and a refusal to be demeaned or mistreated.
