Pacas Verdes (feat. Ovi)

Natanael Cano's 'Pacas Verdes,' featuring Ovi, is a song that delves into themes of success, wealth, and the maintenance of authenticity amidst newfound prosperity. The title itself, 'Pacas Verdes,' translates to 'Green Bundles,' which is a colloquial term for stacks of money, setting the tone for the song's focus on financial gain.

The lyrics describe a rags-to-riches story, where Cano talks about his rise from humble beginnings to a life of luxury, symbolized by brands like Louis Vuitton and Rolex, and high-end cars like a Camaro and Rolls-Royce. Despite his wealth, Cano emphasizes that he remains humble and true to himself. The song also touches on the theme of loyalty and wariness of deceitful people, as he mentions staying ready with his crew for any trouble and not trusting 'much lacra' (scum). The presence of San Judas, or Saint Jude, indicates a reliance on faith and protection from negative influences.

Musically, Natanael Cano is known for his role in popularizing 'corridos tumbados,' a modern twist on traditional Mexican corridos that blends with trap and other urban influences. This genre often features narratives of personal experiences, and 'Pacas Verdes' is no exception, as it narrates Cano's personal journey and mindset. The song's braggadocious lyrics and confident delivery are characteristic of the genre, which celebrates overcoming obstacles and achieving success.
