SONG MEANING

CANGURO is Wos’s lyrical roundhouse kick aimed straight at Argentina’s social and political frustrations. Bouncing with restless energy (just like a kangaroo), he rails against inequality, exploitative work, police brutality, and empty talk about meritocracy. Through rapid-fire verses, Wos paints a picture of everyday people who labor long hours for pennies while the powers-that-be silence any dissent. The repeated commands to “Cállenlo, sédenlo” (Shut him up, sedate him) mimic how authorities try to muzzle rebellious voices, yet the beat surges forward, proving that protest is impossible to suppress.

Amid the anger, the song celebrates collective resistance and street culture: cheap beer, shared joints, and late-night cyphers become small acts of freedom that keep spirits high. Wos invites listeners to check “de qué lado de la mecha te encontrás” — on which side of the fuse you stand — turning the track into both a party anthem and a call to action. CANGURO reminds us that even when the system says, “Swallow your rage,” the crowd can still jump, shout, and fight back together.
