Me Pagan (feat. Yung Sarria)

Alemán's song "Me Pagan (feat. Yung Sarria)" is a gritty and unfiltered exploration of the darker side of fame and the lifestyle that often accompanies it. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a life where the artist is compensated for engaging in various vices, from drug use to promiscuity. The repeated lines, "Ahora me pagan por periquear, me pagan por ir droga'o, me pagan por ir a culear, me pagan por ir vola'o," emphasize the transactional nature of his existence, where even the most self-destructive behaviors are monetized.

The song delves into themes of excess and the emptiness that can accompany a life driven by hedonism. Alemán's lyrics suggest a sense of disillusionment and a loss of personal identity, as he is paid to perform actions that ultimately degrade him. The mention of social media and the need for constant validation, "ready en las redes sociales, sígame, búsqueme, páreme," highlights the pressure to maintain a certain image and the superficiality of online fame.

Cultural references and metaphors are abundant in the song, with lines like "El que anda con mierda es mierda, el que anda con rata es rata" serving as a stark reminder of the company one keeps and the influence it has on one's life. The song's raw and unapologetic tone reflects Alemán's style, known for its candid portrayal of street life and the struggles that come with it. The collaboration with Yung Sarria adds another layer of authenticity, as both artists share a similar background and perspective on the harsh realities of their environment.
