SONG MEANING

“Oficial” by Colombian artist Ryan Castro is a playful negotiation of modern love. The singer, who admits he is “not romantic,” offers to swap his notorious “dog” persona for a loyal “cat” attitude if the woman in question wants something serious. Over a smooth reggaetón beat, he hands her the power: she can decide whether to become his official partner or keep things as a carefree one-night adventure. The tone stays flirty, cheeky, and disarmingly honest, revealing vulnerability beneath the swagger.

Amid clever wordplay and mentions of gossiping friends, Ryan owns up to past mistakes and the temptations that come with fame, yet insists the past no longer defines him. The core message centers on choice and respect—no pressure, only transparency. Whether the relationship becomes official or remains casual, he is ready to adapt. This turns “Oficial” into more than a party anthem; it becomes a lesson in consent, honesty, and personal growth wrapped in the irresistible energy of Colombian reggaetón.
