Unveiling the Shadows: An Analysis of WOS's 'BUITRES'

In 'BUITRES,' Argentine rapper WOS delves into the darker aspects of human nature and the music industry, using vivid imagery and metaphors to convey his message. The song begins with a personal reflection on existential struggles, where the artist expresses a desire to find meaning in life amidst a sense of entrapment and darkness. The recurring mention of 'chains' and 'condemnation' suggests a feeling of being bound by circumstances or societal expectations, highlighting the internal conflict WOS faces.

The chorus, 'Esos buitres están mirando,' which translates to 'Those vultures are watching,' serves as a powerful metaphor for opportunistic individuals who prey on others' successes and vulnerabilities. WOS portrays these 'vultures' as ever-present observers, waiting to capitalize on the efforts of others without contributing themselves. This imagery is extended through the verses, where he describes these figures as deceitful, likening them to carrion birds disguised as swans, further emphasizing their predatory nature.

The song also touches on themes of betrayal and resilience. WOS discusses how people close to him, once hidden, now emerge during his times of hardship, revealing their true intentions. Despite the challenges and the presence of these 'vultures,' the artist resolves to remain aware and unfooled by appearances. The lyrics suggest a journey towards self-awareness and empowerment, refusing to let the deceitful actions of others dictate his path or dampen his spirit.
