Morad and J Abecia turn up the summer heat with “Chula,” a breezy love anthem that mixes street swagger with wide-eyed romance. Over a hypnotic beat, the narrator locks eyes with a girl who instantly steals his heart. He keeps calling her chula—Spanish slang for “cutie” or “sweetheart”—and promises to be her chulo, the loyal guy who protects his treasure. From moonlit drives and steamy car windows to daydreams of giving her the whole sky, every line paints a picture of head-over-heels infatuation that feels spontaneous, playful, and irresistible.
Beneath the flirtatious tone, the song also hints at real-world struggles. Morad references nights hustling for money, cold walks through Algeciras, and the lingering weight of problems he has carried since childhood. Yet whenever he thinks of his gitana morena, all that stress fades. “Chula” is ultimately about finding a spark so powerful it outshines hardship—a reminder that even in tough times, love can make life feel lighter, louder, and full of promise.
