The Farmer's Hustle: A Glimpse into the Underground World

Arcángel's song "El Granjero" featuring Flow Mafia, Gigolo y La Exce, delves into the gritty and often dangerous world of drug trafficking. The title, which translates to "The Farmer," is a metaphor for the artist's involvement in the drug trade. The repeated line, "Bregando con pollos y burros, parezco un granjero" (Dealing with chickens and donkeys, I look like a farmer), uses farm animals as code for drugs, illustrating the clandestine nature of his operations.

The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the duality in Arcángel's life. He mentions being local but having foreign machinery and women, highlighting the contrast between his roots and the international reach of his business. This duality is further emphasized by his claim that he can handle the "grasa" (grease) without getting his hands dirty, suggesting his ability to navigate the criminal world without facing the consequences that typically come with it.

Arcángel also touches on the theme of survival and the pursuit of wealth. He admits to liking easy money, even though it has been hard-earned over the years. The song reflects his decade-long experience in the drug trade, portraying him as a seasoned veteran who has managed to stay ahead despite investigations and the inherent risks. The mention of his "connect" and the demand for his product in various neighborhoods underscores the widespread influence and reach of his operations.

The song's raw and unapologetic lyrics offer a glimpse into the harsh realities of the underground economy. It speaks to the allure of quick riches and the lengths individuals will go to achieve financial success, even if it means engaging in illegal activities. Arcángel's portrayal of himself as a "granjero" serves as a powerful metaphor for the cultivation and distribution of drugs, drawing a parallel between farming and the drug trade's meticulous and labor-intensive nature.
