¿Y TÚ QUÉ? Lyrics in English by Rels B
Rels B turns the song into a cheeky challenge aimed at people who talk, complain, or want to see him fail. While “Todos ellos hablando, to’ nosotros riendo” [They are all talking, while we are laughing], he is drinking in a club in the city centre after another concert, spending freely and buying clothes “original” [authentic, rather than fake]. He is on a Latin American tour, living an international party life, and the repeated question “¿Y tú qué?” [And what about you?] sounds like a playful taunt: I am out here living this life, so what are you doing?
The second verse turns the boasting up even higher. “Me dijeron que la vida es corta” [They told me life is short], so he says he is enjoying himself on a beach in Mallorca, a Spanish island, with loud sexual imagery and a carefree mood. He talks about enemies who want him to fall, then answers with “por mis muertos” [I swear on my dead], a strong phrase used to show absolute conviction. His life jumps between business, airports, concerts, attractive fans, and bras thrown onto the stage. The repeated “¿Tú qué?” keeps the song funny, provocative, and slightly arrogant, like a grin after a night of success.
