SONG MEANING

Get ready for a night of neon lights, pounding reggaetón beats and feline confidence. In “GATÚBELA,” Colombian powerhouse KAROL G slips into her inner Catwoman, purring with playful desire while letting everyone know she is in total control of the chase. She sings about being “loca por probarte”—eager to taste a new romance—yet she keeps her independence firmly intact, teasing “Ojalá puedas quedarte, porque así me quedo yo” (I hope you can stay, because that way I’ll stay too). The result is a flirtatious dance-floor fantasy where freedom and raw attraction intertwine.

When veteran reggaetón voice Maldy jumps in, the heat rises. His verse mirrors her energy, praising her bold sensuality and inviting her to an unrestrained perreo session. Together they paint a picture of mutual consent and empowered sexuality: two equals trading compliments, confident moves and electrifying chemistry. At its core, the song celebrates owning your desires without apology—so turn up the volume and let your inner gatúbela prowl.
