Trucha

Opm's song 'Trucha' delves deep into the world of street art and graffiti, portraying it as a form of rebellion and self-expression. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the artist's life, masked and armed with a can of Krylon spray paint, ready to leave their mark on the city. The use of 'nylon' and 'Krylon' symbolizes the tools of their trade, while 'seeing through the walls we write on' suggests a deeper understanding and connection to the urban environment they transform. The artist's 'crew' is described as 'sly cons,' indicating their cunning and resourcefulness in evading law enforcement while pursuing their passion.

The song highlights the constant battle between graffiti artists and the authorities, with lines like 'cops try to put a stop to my art and hip hop' and 'juras don't mix with pinturas.' This conflict underscores the tension between the establishment and the subversive nature of street art. The artists are depicted as 'looters of virgin walls,' taking over untouched spaces to create their masterpieces. The phrase 'writers reign supreme on the street art scene' emphasizes their dominance and influence in this underground culture. The 'OPM kings' and their 'tight cliques' represent a close-knit community bound by their shared love for graffiti and the pursuit of recognition.

The chorus reinforces the idea of seeking fame and respect through their art, with the goal of 'getting a name in this world.' The song captures the essence of the graffiti artist's journey, from the adrenaline rush of tagging a wall to the respect earned within their community. 'Trucha' is a testament to the resilience and creativity of street artists, who navigate the challenges of their environment to leave a lasting impact on the urban landscape.
