MC Rick
A Satirical Take on Modern Relationships and Materialism
MC Rick's song 'Golpe Na Coroa,' featuring MC Pedrinho and DJ Wesley Gonzaga, is a provocative and satirical commentary on modern relationships, materialism, and the lengths some individuals will go to achieve financial gain. The song's lyrics revolve around a young man who engages with older women, or 'coroas,' to benefit financially, highlighting a transactional approach to relationships that is both humorous and critical.
The song opens with a nod to the chaotic nature of the 21st century, where even older women are depicted as participating in the 'mundão da putaria' (world of debauchery). This sets the stage for the protagonist's interactions with an older woman, whom he refers to as 'tia.' The protagonist's casual and opportunistic attitude is evident as he jokes about introducing his grandfather to the woman if she gifts him an iPhone. This interaction underscores the theme of materialism, where relationships are reduced to mere transactions.
The chorus, with its repetitive lines about targeting older women to gain financial benefits before turning thirty, further emphasizes the protagonist's mercenary mindset. The phrase 'ganhar aposentadoria' (earn a pension) is used metaphorically to suggest that the protagonist views these relationships as a means to secure his financial future. The song's humor lies in its exaggerated portrayal of the protagonist's schemes, making it a satirical critique of a society obsessed with wealth and material possessions.
The song also touches on the power dynamics in these relationships, as seen in the lines where the protagonist demands money and sexual favors from 'Dona Márcia.' This highlights the exploitative nature of such interactions, where the older woman is expected to provide financial support in exchange for companionship. The song's playful yet critical tone invites listeners to reflect on the superficiality and moral implications of such relationships, making it a thought-provoking piece despite its seemingly lighthearted approach.
