Sub17

The song 'Sub17' by Tabanka Djaz tells a story that begins innocently but takes an unexpected turn. The protagonist starts his evening with a casual drive after dinner, seeking some fun at a local discotheque. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of a carefree night out, where the protagonist indulges in a few drinks and encounters a captivating young woman. Her seemingly innocent demeanor and charm quickly captivate him, leading to an intense and passionate connection.

As the night progresses, the protagonist and the young woman share a deep physical and emotional bond, described as 'day and night with madness.' However, the story takes a shocking twist when the young woman reveals her age—she is only 15 years old. This revelation leaves the protagonist in a state of disbelief and shock, highlighting the theme of unexpected consequences and the importance of awareness and responsibility in relationships.

The repeated chorus 'Sub 17, nós somos as sub 17' emphasizes the youth and inexperience of the young woman, underscoring the potential dangers and ethical dilemmas that can arise in such situations. The song serves as a cautionary tale, reminding listeners to be mindful of the age and maturity of their partners, and to consider the potential legal and moral implications of their actions. Through its narrative, 'Sub17' explores themes of attraction, deception, and the unforeseen consequences of seemingly innocent encounters.
