Review

Camilo is a famous Colombian singer and after 2007 when he appeared on the X-Factor of his country he has only been growing up as a celebrity in Latin-American, Spain, and even in the USA. 

His lyrics are full of intrepid poems, verbs, and modern expressions that fit together into songs of high musical quality. His music can go from romantic verses to daily life stuff. Most of his fans are teenagers and girls around 16-25. However, his music is for everyone.

Expensive Clothes is a funny story about a humble guy who tells us the story of how he met a very refined girl. 

At first, everything was smooth and the chemistry was awesome, however, as he gets to know her more, he noticed she was a girl with expensive tastes and every day with her became difficult as she started to demand on him expensive clothes from Balenciaga, Gucci, and Prada. He needed to wears designer clothes to be able to date her. He even borrowed cars to pick her up at night for the dates.

At the end of the song, he starts to question what he’s doing, he is not that kind of person, however, it is unknown if she broke up with the girl or just adapted to her.

If you want to know more about Camilo, you can check on his Instagram or a list of his songs.
