“Veneno” is J Balvin’s swagger-packed anthem of unstoppable success and good vibes. The Colombian superstar paints a vivid picture of living large: cruising “in my machine, chilling,” diamonds that look like ice, models toasting with glasses held high, and a Ferrari that sails across oceans. While others waste energy “montando veneno” – spreading venom and negativity – Balvin flips the script and lights up the vibe instead. He keeps everything “todo positivo,” reminding listeners that when you focus on your own path, haters can’t dull your shine.
The song is a celebration of confidence, ambition, and perseverance. Balvin declares that he does what he wants while the critics only do what they can. References to champions like Michael Jordan and powerful figures like Rihanna reinforce the message: dream big, aim high, and stay international. “Veneno” invites you to dance, feel fearless, and let any negativity roll right off your shoulders – because in Balvin’s world, the only poison worth spreading is pure, electrifying energy.
