Ese Hombre Es Malo puts us right in the middle of a classic Ranchera-style heartbreak, but with KAROL G’s unmistakable Colombian swagger. Over sweeping guitars and a cantina-ready beat, she calls out a two-timing lover who thinks he can juggle “dos, tres… y también conmigo.” The lyrics paint a vivid picture: lipstick traces on his clothes, secret smiles at his phone, and a chorus that labels him with every red-flag adjective in the book—malo, mentiroso, posesivo.
Yet beneath the fiery accusations, KAROL G lays bare her vulnerability. She drinks to forget, remembers the years she dedicated to him, and finally decides to walk away “con este corazón herido.” The result is an empowering anthem that transforms personal pain into collective strength, inviting us to sing (and maybe shout) along while learning the vocabulary of love, betrayal, and self-respect—Ranchera style.
