Doble Cara

Beny Jr's song 'Doble Cara' delves into the complexities of success, loyalty, and betrayal. The title itself, which translates to 'Double-Faced,' sets the tone for a narrative that explores the duality of people's intentions and actions. Beny Jr uses vivid imagery and metaphors to describe how some individuals present themselves as high-end ('Dicen ser la Gucci') but are actually low-cost ('tienen precios del Zara'). This contrast highlights the theme of deception and the superficial nature of some relationships in the pursuit of success.

The lyrics also touch on the artist's rise to fame and the changes that come with it. Beny Jr mentions how his increasing popularity has made his 'tarifa' (rate) more expensive, indicating the higher stakes and pressures that accompany success. He juxtaposes this with his street credibility, referencing his ability to evade the police and his familiarity with the gritty realities of life ('Me fugo ‘e la poli, pa’ mí eso es normal'). This duality underscores the tension between his past and present, and the constant struggle to maintain authenticity in a world full of 'embustero' (liars).

Furthermore, the repeated refrain 'Y ahora todo eso me ha cambia’o' (And now all of that has changed me) emphasizes the transformative impact of money and fame. Beny Jr acknowledges that these changes are not always positive, as they bring about new challenges and expose the true nature of those around him. The song also includes a call for freedom for individuals like Sufian and Mustafa, adding a layer of social commentary on justice and loyalty. Through 'Doble Cara,' Beny Jr paints a vivid picture of the highs and lows of his journey, offering listeners a raw and honest look at the price of success.
