Antes (feat. Ozuna)

In 'Antes,' Anuel AA and Ozuna take listeners on a nostalgic journey, reminiscing about the good old days of carefree nights spent at the discoteca. The song is a heartfelt ode to the past, where the artists long for the simpler times when life was all about dancing until dawn, enjoying the company of friends, and living in the moment. The repetition of 'qué rico era ante'' (how good it was before) underscores their yearning to relive those moments, even if just for an instant.

The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the nightlife scene, filled with vibrant energy and a sense of freedom. The mention of 'fumando krippy en la lleca' (smoking krippy in the street) and 'viendo llegar a Héctor con los rompe discoteca'' (watching Héctor arrive with the club bangers) adds a layer of authenticity to their memories. These lines highlight the raw and unfiltered experiences that defined their youth, where the thrill of the night was intertwined with a sense of danger and excitement.

Anuel AA and Ozuna also touch on the theme of lost connections and unfulfilled desires. The lines 'me diste otro número, te llamé y no contestaste' (you gave me another number, I called and you didn't answer) reflect the fleeting nature of these encounters and the bittersweet feeling of what could have been. The song captures the essence of longing for a time when life felt more spontaneous and less complicated, a sentiment that resonates with many who look back fondly on their own past experiences.

'Antes' is more than just a song about partying; it's a reflection on the passage of time and the inevitable changes that come with it. The artists' desire to return to those carefree nights serves as a reminder of the importance of cherishing the present and making the most of every moment, as they acknowledge that those days are now just cherished memories.
