Velorio literally means a 'wake' or 'vigil,' the gathering held to mourn someone who has died. It's a powerful and dramatic word that you don't often hear in a pop song.
J Balvin uses it metaphorically, singing "voy a hacerte un velorio" (I'm going to hold a wake for you). He's declaring that the relationship is so completely over that it's 'dead' to him, creating a vivid and intense image of finality.
"ODIO" turns the usual love song on its head. J Balvin from Colombia teams up with Puerto Rico’s Bad Bunny to deliver a reggaeton banger that swaps flowers for fire. The beat is infectious, yet the lyrics drip with amor convertido en odio – love turned into hate. They list lavish trips, steamy videos, and expensive dinners only to spit them back with a grin, letting every punchy rhyme show just how quickly sweet memories can sour.
At its core, the track is a loud, unapologetic tantrum after a toxic breakup. The singers wish their ex the worst, brag about new flings, and admit that any future encounters would be purely physical and fueled by resentment. It is a snapshot of that explosive stage where rencor, coraje, and despecho run the show, proving that in reggaeton, even hatred can make you move your feet.
