EN CASITA is a playful slice-of-life diary from Bad Bunny and his girlfriend Gabriela, recorded while the world was in COVID-19 lockdown. Over a laid-back beat, the couple vents their cabin fever: no concerts, no parties, no romantic meet-ups. Instead, there are empty cereal bowls, endless PlayStation sessions and text messages from Puerto Rican governor Wanda Vázquez ordering everyone home. The chorus, “Toca quedarme en casa,” is both a catchy hook and a public-service reminder: stay inside or the virus will “mata.”
Yet the track is far from gloomy. Bad Bunny sprinkles humor, pop-culture nods and a jab at local politics (“quiero que el virus se vaya como Rosselló”) to keep spirits high. The promise of passionate reunions “cuando la cuarentena termine” flips frustration into hope, turning confinement into anticipation. With its mix of sincerity, sarcasm and irresistible rhythm, EN CASITA bottles the shared experience of 2020 and transforms it into a feel-good quarantine anthem.
