Requisito 420 (feat. L-Gante)

Alemán's 'Requisito 420,' featuring L-Gante, is a vivid portrayal of a night filled with rebellion, indulgence, and camaraderie. The song's lyrics paint a picture of a lifestyle that defies societal norms and embraces a hedonistic approach to life. The recurring theme of marijuana ('mari') and whisky as 'requisitos' (requirements) for the night sets the tone for the song, highlighting the carefree and rebellious spirit of the protagonists. The mention of '4:20,' a well-known reference to cannabis culture, further emphasizes the centrality of marijuana in their nightly escapades.

The song also delves into themes of defiance and resilience. Alemán and L-Gante both address the challenges they face from authorities and rivals. The line 'Ese poli me vio por la tele, eh / Sabe que tengo la lana, ah' suggests a sense of notoriety and the constant scrutiny from law enforcement. Despite these challenges, the artists express a sense of invincibility and confidence, as seen in lines like 'Pero no pueden conmigo / Y seguro que nunca me van a poder.' This defiance is not just against the police but also against societal expectations and norms.

Cultural references and metaphors are abundant throughout the song. The mention of 'Johnny de Cookies con coco' and 'Humo venenoso de los verde' cogolloso'' are vivid descriptions of their indulgences. The song also touches on the darker side of their lifestyle, with references to betrayal and the dangers of their environment. The line 'Mucha traición hay en este negocio / Es un juego muy sucio y hay mucho ambicioso' highlights the treacherous nature of their world. Despite this, the song maintains a celebratory tone, with the artists reveling in their freedom and the bonds they share with their friends.
