Strawberry Kiwi

Rauw Alejandro's 'Strawberry Kiwi' is a sultry and evocative track that delves into themes of desire, addiction, and the intoxicating allure of a romantic partner. The song's lyrics are rich with vivid imagery and metaphors, painting a picture of a passionate and almost obsessive relationship. The recurring motif of 'kiwi with fresa' (kiwi with strawberry) serves as a metaphor for the unique and irresistible flavor of his lover, suggesting a blend of sweetness and tanginess that he finds utterly captivating.

The song opens with a striking line that immediately sets the tone: 'Ese culo tuyo está creciendo to' los día' (That ass of yours is growing every day). This line, while explicit, underscores the physical attraction and the almost hypnotic effect his partner has on him. The lyrics continue to explore this theme, with Rauw Alejandro describing his lover as a queen ('mi alteza') to whom he is completely devoted. The imagery of 'bajé y su juguito me tomé' (I went down and drank her juice) is both sensual and intimate, emphasizing the depth of his desire and the pleasure he derives from their connection.

Throughout the song, Rauw Alejandro uses various metaphors to describe his addiction to his lover. He compares her to a lottery, a remote control, and even a flavor of ice cream, each metaphor highlighting a different aspect of his infatuation. The line 'Baby, tengo una adicción, ¿cómo escapo de ella?' (Baby, I have an addiction, how do I escape it?) encapsulates the central theme of the song: the struggle between the overwhelming desire and the realization of its potentially consuming nature. The playful yet intense tone of the song is further amplified by the energetic production and Rauw Alejandro's charismatic delivery, making 'Strawberry Kiwi' a compelling exploration of love and lust.

The song also touches on the element of surprise and unpredictability in the relationship, with lines like 'Siempre pa' mí tiene una sorpresa' (She always has a surprise for me). This adds a layer of excitement and anticipation, suggesting that the relationship is not only passionate but also dynamic and ever-evolving. The closing lines, with shoutouts to various collaborators, ground the song in its musical context, reminding listeners of the collaborative effort behind the track and the vibrant, creative energy that Rauw Alejandro brings to his music.
