Hipo

In 'Hipo,' Funky delves into the theme of hypocrisy, using the metaphor of hiccups to represent the involuntary and often inconvenient truth-telling that occurs in moments of honesty. The song opens with the artist admitting to a problem: he tends to speak the truth when he gets hiccups. This sets the stage for a deeper exploration of the discomfort and social friction that arise from being honest in a world rife with hypocrisy. Funky’s mother warned him that his hypocrisy would eventually cause him trouble, a sentiment that resonates throughout the song as he grapples with the consequences of his own and others' insincerity.

The chorus, with its repetitive 'Hipo, hipo ¡huc! Hipocresía,' underscores the persistent and unavoidable nature of hypocrisy. Funky criticizes those who pretend to be moral and honest while hiding their true intentions and actions. He points out the irony of people who spread rumors and ask for favors, highlighting the double standards that pervade social interactions. The song suggests that in a world where deceit is common, those who are genuinely honest are often viewed with suspicion and disdain.

Funky also touches on the idea of preferring honest distance over close hypocrisy. He emphasizes that he does not hold grudges but remembers the names of those who have wronged him. This reflects a desire for genuine connections and a rejection of superficial relationships. The song concludes with a powerful statement about moving with God and maintaining integrity, even if it means facing social discomfort. 'Hipo' is a compelling commentary on the challenges of living truthfully in a hypocritical society, wrapped in a catchy and memorable musical package.
