Milano

Soolking's song 'Milano' is a vibrant and passionate ode to love, dreams, and the desire to escape from life's hardships. The lyrics paint a picture of a couple deeply in love, willing to take risks and make sacrifices for each other. The repeated phrase 'Hbiba lalalalala' emphasizes the affectionate bond between the two, as they dream of a life far removed from their current struggles. The use of 'hbiba,' an Arabic term of endearment, adds a personal and cultural touch to the song, highlighting the artist's roots and the universal nature of love.

The song juxtaposes the allure of wealth and luxury with the stark reality of potential imprisonment. Lines like 'c'est soit riche ou derrière les barreaux' (it's either rich or behind bars) and 'vie de luxe, shopping à Milano' (life of luxury, shopping in Milan) reflect the high stakes and the dichotomy between success and failure. The reference to Milan, a city known for its fashion and opulence, symbolizes the ultimate dream of a lavish lifestyle. This dream is contrasted with the fear of being caught and imprisoned, a reality that many face when trying to escape poverty through unconventional means.

Soolking also touches on themes of loyalty and partnership. The lyrics describe a relationship where both partners are willing to go to great lengths for each other. The lines 'Pour moi tu risquerais de tout perdre / Pour toi je prendrai dix ans fermes' (For me, you would risk losing everything / For you, I would take ten years in prison) highlight the depth of their commitment. This mutual dedication is further emphasized by the imagery of the woman hiding the 'butin' (loot) and standing by her partner through thick and thin. The song ultimately portrays a romanticized vision of love and ambition, where the couple's dreams and loyalty to each other drive them to seek a better life, no matter the risks involved.
