SONG MEANING

El Greñas Mentado opens the door to a flashy yet dangerous universe where swagger and survival go hand in hand. Ivan Cornejo paints a cinematic self-portrait: a man who checks the time on a Rolex, flashes diamonds on his neck, and freezes rivals with a devilish glare. Backed by an armed, thrill-seeking crew, he rules the streets of his hometown La Manzanota, reminding everyone that stepping up to him is a risky bet.

Beneath the bling and bravado, the song reveals a softer core. Cornejo’s “niña” fuels his drive, loyal friends guard his back, and family stays at the center of every move. Even as the business grows, fleets of trucks roll out, and the stakes rise, he insists he is still a “fina persona,” a refined soul who remembers where he came from. The track celebrates ambition, loyalty, and street-wise resilience, all wrapped in a catchy, modern corrido vibe.
