“Veneno” mixes Junior H’s signature corridos tumbados edge with Paloma Mami’s smooth urban pop, creating a tale of love that feels as addictive as it is toxic. The title itself means “poison,” and that sets the mood: two ex-lovers who know they should stay apart keep dialing each other up in the middle of the night. Between references to fancy brands, secret calls, and lingering perfume, they confess that desire keeps winning even though the relationship is clearly bad for them.
Rather than a sweet love song, this track is a late-night confession booth. Junior H admits he was once “the center” of her world, only to wind up in an “alternate” reality where memories blur with smoke and liquor. Paloma Mami matches him line for line, recognizing that their passion is lethal yet still tempting. The repeated cry of “fuera veneno” (poison out) shows both artists trying to detox their hearts, but each bass-heavy beat reminds us they might relapse at any moment. The song captures that familiar struggle between what the mind knows and what the body wants, wrapping it in moody guitars, regional Mexican flair, and a hypnotic reggaetón swing that makes the danger sound irresistible.
