Hermano (part. Seven Binks y Koba LaD)

In 'Hermano,' MORAD, along with Seven Binks and Koba LaD, delves into the gritty realities of street life, crime, and the pervasive influence of drugs. The song's title, which translates to 'Brother,' hints at the deep bonds and loyalty among those navigating this harsh environment. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the struggles and choices faced by individuals entrenched in this lifestyle, where illegal activities and the constant threat of violence are everyday occurrences.

The recurring phrase 'por la droga tú lo hacía' (you did it for the drugs) underscores the central theme of the song. It highlights how the pursuit of drugs and the lifestyle associated with them can drive people to extreme actions, often leading to a cycle of crime and desperation. The mention of 'José Antonio' and 'paquetes que son de otoño' (packages that are from autumn) suggests dealings with a drug supplier, further emphasizing the entanglement with the drug trade.

The song also touches on the psychological toll of this lifestyle. References to insomnia and paranoia ('tratas con el demonio y acabas cogiendo insomnio') illustrate the mental strain and constant fear that accompany a life of crime. The lyrics also reflect a sense of fatalism and resignation, as the characters seem trapped in their circumstances, unable to break free from the cycle of violence and addiction. The use of multiple languages (Spanish and French) adds a layer of authenticity and reflects the multicultural reality of urban life in places like Paris and Barcelona, where these artists hail from.

Overall, 'Hermano' is a raw and unflinching portrayal of the dark allure of the streets, where loyalty and survival are paramount, but the cost is often one's peace of mind and freedom.
