Caronte invites us on a shadowy boat ride where Alba Reche confronts the price of creativity. Borrowing the name of Charon, the ferryman of the underworld, the song paints a picture of an artist who has “sold her soul” for the spotlight. Amid blinding stage lights (“con focos, con luz del mal”), she realizes her art is being swallowed by people who only want “dirty laundry” and “clear lies.” With every dance step and note, she wonders: Who am I performing for, and why?
Yet beneath the darkness glimmers defiance. By exposing the emptiness of those who profit from her passion, Alba reclaims control of her voice and questions the value society places on genuine emotion. Caronte becomes both confession and rebellion—a reminder that true art is priceless, and the soul behind it should never be for sale.
