TQG – short for Te Quedó Grande or “I was too much for you” – is a fiery reggaeton anthem in which two Colombian powerhouses, KAROL G from Medellín and Shakira from Barranquilla, clap back at an ex who keeps lurking around their social-media feeds. With sharp sarcasm and plenty of swagger, they remind him that patching loneliness with a rebound never heals the real wound. He may parade a new girlfriend, but the lyrics reveal he still checks every story and photo, proving he has not really moved on.
Rather than pine for what was, the singers celebrate glowing up – “triple M: más buena, más dura, más leve” – focusing on career wins, fuller bank accounts, and self-confidence that sparkles brighter than any heartbreak. They refuse to “compete for men,” turning the tables by laughing at jealous comments and declaring the ex no longer welcome in their upgraded lives. The result is a catchy empowerment track that mixes playful taunts with a clear message: sometimes the best revenge is living better, dancing harder, and letting the beat announce your freedom.
