BELANOVA Lyrics in English by Peso Pluma, Tito Double P
Peso Pluma and Tito Double P are here to describe a very specific lifestyle, and it's all about excess. The song kicks off in a Jeep with the line, "En el Jeep fumando un gallo y un tusi ya me pegué" (In the Jeep smoking a joint and I already took some tusi), setting a scene of partying and luxury. This isn't just a party, though; it's a whole mood he calls "Bien bélico, así es el modo" (Very warlike, that's the mode). This 'bélico' or 'warlike' style includes wearing a "Gorrita de lado y unos Balenciaga" (Cap to the side and some Balenciagas) while flying on a private jet. It's a life of extremes where he wants everything to be "Psicodélico" (Psychedelic) and he plans to live this way until the end, repeating the line "Bélico me muero" (Warlike I'll die).
The song is full of clever and funny boasts. He makes a sharp distinction about the kind of pink he's interested in with the line "Rosa pastel, no el de Belanova, ese no" (Pastel pink, not the one from Belanova, not that one). He's talking about the pink party drug 'tusi', not the famous sad pop song "Rosa Pastel" by the Mexican band Belanova. He's rejecting emotional pop music for a much harder reality. He also throws in references to narco-culture, like "Setecientos uno en la Super Güera" (Seven hundred and one in the Super Güera), a nod to El Chapo's old Forbes list number, and listening to the corrido "'Siempre Pendientes'" (Always on alert). It's a blunt and detailed picture of a life filled with luxury brands, beautiful women, and constant danger.
