Hijo del Rigor

Lego Skillz's 'Hijo del Rigor' is a raw and powerful narrative that delves into the struggles and triumphs of life in the streets. The song opens with vivid imagery of a neighborhood where coughs are more common than car sounds, painting a picture of hardship and resilience. The reference to 'vagos' (slackers) flying like Hancock and the transformation of a friend who changed 'like voice in audios' speaks to the fluid and often unpredictable nature of relationships and personal growth in such environments. The mention of 'joven Gaudio' living off the racket adds a layer of complexity, hinting at the hustle and survival tactics employed by the youth.

The chorus, with its repeated desire to have a street named after the 'hombre de calle' (man of the street), underscores a deep yearning for recognition and respect. Lego Skillz rejects materialistic symbols like Dior and Versace, emphasizing that no divine force can silence him as long as his lyrics carry the fire of truth and passion, akin to the intensity of Slayer's music or the iconic Thrasher logo. This defiance and commitment to authenticity are central themes throughout the song.

Lego Skillz pays homage to cultural icons and personal influences, from Mac Miller to Aaron Gordon, weaving them into his narrative to highlight his aspirations and the duality of his existence. He acknowledges the presence of both good and evil within him, symbolized by carrying God and the Devil on his shoulders. The lyrics also reflect a relentless drive to rise from the rubble and create something monumental, much like the Big Ben in London or the magical allure of Orlando. The song's closing lines reiterate his connection to his roots and his crew, emphasizing loyalty and the importance of staying true to one's origins. 'Hijo del Rigor' is a testament to the artist's journey, marked by struggle, resilience, and an unwavering commitment to his craft.
