Air France Lyrics in English by Eladio Carrion
Gerencia translates to "management" or "the management team". It's an unexpected, almost corporate word to find in a rap song, which is exactly what makes it stand out.
In the song, Eladio Carrión raps "No me tire', que yo no contesto, porfa llama a la gerencia" ("Don't throw shots at me, I don't respond, please call management"), using gerencia defiantly to suggest he's too important to deal with petty criticism himself.
"Air France" is Eladio Carrión flexing hard. Over three verses he lists out the trappings of wealth and fame: private art shows, six-figure shopping sprees in Paris, luxury cars, Kobe beef, designer watches, and Cuban-link chains. The song's title comes from one of his flights: he name-drops spending big in the Champs-Élysées and Brantôme, a nod to jet-setting across Europe like it's nothing.
Beneath the boasting there's a competitive edge. He needles other rappers who talk about him behind his back, says he doesn't fight for a spot anymore because nobody can touch him, and calls out imitators copying his flow. He also touches on the toll of that lifestyle: sleepless nights, needing medication to switch off, and voices in his head from the pressure of always being "on."
It closes on a note of total confidence, comparing himself to a legend ("the GOAT") who has nothing left to prove.
