La Maria (feat. Anuel AA)

Ozuna's song 'La Maria,' featuring Anuel AA, delves into the gritty and opulent world of the urban underworld, where wealth, power, and danger intersect. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a life filled with luxury, risk, and defiance against authority. The repeated mention of high-end watches like Nadal and Buga Wason, and references to Michael Jackson, underscore the immense wealth and status the artists claim to possess. This is further emphasized by the metaphor of 'Michael Phelps swimming in money,' illustrating an almost surreal level of affluence.

The song also touches on themes of law enforcement and evasion. The recurring line 'Nos cayo la policia, Boten La Maria' (The police caught us, throw away the weed) highlights the constant cat-and-mouse game with the authorities. This line not only reflects the illegal activities the artists are involved in but also their nonchalant attitude towards these risks. The mention of 'La corta debajo del hoodie' (the gun under the hoodie) adds a layer of danger and readiness for confrontation, painting a picture of a life where one must always be prepared for conflict.

Additionally, the song explores themes of loyalty and betrayal. The artists boast about their readiness to defend their status and wealth, even if it means violence, as seen in lines like 'Te llevo rosas pa tu funeral, Cabron no es Rosalia' (I'll bring roses to your funeral, dude, it's not Rosalia). This line, along with others, suggests a world where trust is scarce, and one must always be on guard. The song's raw and unapologetic lyrics offer a glimpse into a lifestyle that is as glamorous as it is perilous, reflecting the duality of success and the constant threat of downfall in the urban underworld.
