Rosalia is everywhere. his new album, Luxgripping its first week. So much so that it unseated Taylor Swift as the most-streamed album in the world. But in recent days it has ventured into unexpected territory: politics.
The latest person to use a song by the Catalan artist to criticize a political opponent was Transport Minister Oscar Puente. Specifically, part of a speech The pearl – A hate poem – in which Rosalia sings: “He doesn’t know what it means to contribute.”
Puente points to Vox president Santiago Abascal, who last Saturday posted a video from 2019 in which a worker defended far-right voting and justified work experience to avoid unwanted contracts. “As if it were today,” Abascal said. “What about 2019? You’ve been like this since you got on your feet,” the transport chief replied, accompanying the message with part of the music track.
The truth is that Puente is not the first to use Lux for political criticism. Since last Thursday Pedro Sanchez will visit the Radio 3 studio RTVE described the singer’s new album as “wonderful,” and the Popular Party launched jokes against the prime minister.
It was so The pearl The protagonist, perhaps because there is no hidden set of crimes at all. It was this title that Miguel Tellado recommended to the head of the executive branch: “You can feel yourself depicted in it.” He added: “Pedro Sanchez has become the ‘pearl’ of Spain.”
The People’s Party itself added an excerpt of the chorus on its social networks, which brings together phrases such as: “Local disappointment, patriotic heartbreaker / Passionate terrorist, world’s greatest catastrophe / It’s a pearl, no one trusts / It’s a pearl, getting so much attention.” Although “Al-Shaabi” decided to focus the focus away from love, with verses such as “The Thief of Peace,” “Spend the money you have and also the money you don’t have,” or “The Star of Arrogance.”
