Atrevido

Trueno, an Argentine rapper known for his dynamic flow and streetwise lyrics, presents 'Atrevido' as a bold declaration of his identity and roots. The song's title, which translates to 'Daring' or 'Bold' in English, encapsulates the essence of Trueno's message: he is fearless and unapologetic about his background and the life he leads.

The lyrics of 'Atrevido' paint a vivid picture of Trueno's life in the barrio, or neighborhood, and his rise to prominence. He refers to himself as the 'vocero del ghetto,' which means 'spokesperson of the ghetto,' suggesting that he represents the voice of his community. The repeated line 'Por el bajo haciendo ruido' ('Making noise in the low') emphasizes his presence and influence in the lower socioeconomic areas of Buenos Aires, particularly in La Boca, a neighborhood known for its working-class roots and cultural significance. Trueno's lyrics also touch on themes of resilience ('Si una vez me caigo, cuatro veces me levanto' - 'If I fall once, I get up four times') and authenticity, as he contrasts his genuine street credibility with those he considers pretenders or 'actores de reparto' ('supporting actors').

The song also carries a message of hope and a desire for change, as reflected in the line 'El barrio no quiere más tiros' ('The neighborhood doesn't want more shots'). This suggests a yearning for an end to violence and a better future for his community. Trueno's storytelling is not only a personal narrative but also a social commentary, reflecting the struggles and aspirations of many young people in similar environments.
