Kali Uchis blends English and Spanish lyrics to paint a vivid picture of heartbreak and self-discovery. The moment she spots her ex with someone else stings “como una espina de rosa,” yet that pain quickly turns into determination. Over a smooth R&B groove she admits her scars are still fresh, but she refuses to let her former lover keep “rubbing salt” into them. Instead of clinging to a relationship that feels like dancing with the devil, she chooses the freedom of being solita—alone on the dance floor, moving exactly how she likes.
Repeating “mejor que con el diablo,” Uchis transforms solitude into power. The song is an upbeat celebration of reclaiming the pieces of yourself someone tried to steal, facing your own demons, and realizing that sometimes the best company is your own rhythm. Whether you sway to the bilingual verses or let the hypnotic beat carry you, “Solita” invites you to embrace independence, confidence, and a little seductive swagger.
