Rauw Alejandro’s “Hunter” feels like speeding through San Juan on a skateboard after a strong morning coffee––it is pure adrenaline. Over pounding drums and razor-sharp synths, the Puerto Rican hit-maker celebrates his unstoppable rise: front-row fashion moments (Vogue covers, Louis V, Rick Owens), sold-out tours, top-chart plaques, and a bank account “overweight.” Every line drips with swagger as Rauw paints himself as a modern-day John Wick on the dance-floor hunt, fiercely loyal to his crew and merciless toward "fakes" who can’t keep up.
At its core, the song is a victory lap. Rauw flexes his work ethic (“to' los días son wake and bake”), his creative independence (“yo lo digo y también lo hago”), and his confidence with women and onstage charisma. He fires lyrical shots at rivals who buy streams, lip-sync, or rely on ghostwriters, reminding them that his success is earned, not borrowed. “Hunter” is a manifesto of self-assurance: stay real, stay hungry, and never forget who you’re running with when the world finally takes notice.
