Jhay Cortez (Jhayco)
Climbing the Ladder of Success and Sensuality with Jhayco
Jhay Cortez, also known as Jhayco, is a Puerto Rican singer and songwriter who has made a significant impact on the Latin trap and reggaeton scenes. His song "Subiendo de nivel" (Rising Up the Level) is a testament to his musical style, which often combines catchy rhythms with lyrics about success, relationships, and the party lifestyle.
The song's lyrics revolve around the themes of success and sensuality. Jhayco speaks to a romantic interest, suggesting that together they are 'subiendo de nivel,' or elevating their status. This could be interpreted both in terms of their relationship becoming more intense and in the context of their social and economic status. The lyrics are filled with references to luxury and pleasure, such as diamonds on a Cartier watch and giving a five-star experience like a hotel. The song also touches on themes of partying, substance use, and sexual imagery, which are common in the genre, reflecting a hedonistic lifestyle.
Culturally, the song resonates with the aspirational aspects of urban music, where artists often celebrate their rise from humble beginnings to fame and wealth. Jhayco's reference to not wanting to be alone and enjoying the company of his partner adds a personal touch to the song, suggesting that success is not just about material wealth but also about sharing experiences with someone special. The mention of Wisin y Yandel, a famous reggaeton duo known for their hits, further roots the song in the genre's tradition of collaboration and mutual respect among artists.
