Word By Word Lyrics:

Adverb	Verb	Preposition	Adjective	Noun		Adverb	Preposition	Verb	Determiner
hoy	salió	con	suyo	amiga		dizque ⁷	para ⁸	matar	la
today	to go out, leave, to depart, to head out	with	His, hers, its, to her.	Feminine noun of amigo, friend		Latin America apparently	for, to (expressing a recipient)	to kill, slay	the
	3rd Person Singular Indicative Preterite of the verb salir							Infinitive
Today	she went out	with	her	friend	,	apparently	to	kill	the	tusa
⁷ “Dizque” Is a word that expresses a supposition, it could be translated as “Apparently”, however, this supposition comes with a little doubt or speculation, let’s see some examples: “Dizque ella necesita viajar” – “She needs to travel, apparently” “Dizque a él no le gusto la comida, pero se la comió toda” – “Apparently he didn’t like the food, but he ate it all” as you can see in this example, the speaker is trying to express a little doubt, sarcasm or speculation when saying that the other person “apparently” didn’t like the food. This is the correct use of “Dizque” if the conversation is serious and there is no speculation or intentions behind it, the right word would be “Aparentemente”.
^8,9 “Pa'” is the contraction for the word “Para” – “To, for, from”
¹² “Tusa” is a Colombian word that expresses “sadness, depression, sorrow” that is related when a relationship ends and one of the involved is unsatisfied, angry, or sad because the relationship ended on bad or difficult terms. The Tusa then is a sense of sadness for an ended relationship.

Review

“Tusa” is a famous song by the Colombian singer Karol G, and the rapper Nicki Minaj. The song was released on November 7, 2019. The song has had a great impact since its release and became one of the most listened to songs in Latinamerica, the song was a success on social media and surprisingly was more famous among men than women. You could see when it was released videos of groups of boys singing the song all aloud.

“Tusa” was nominated twice at the Latin Grammys and reached the number 42 on the US Billboard Hot 100, later it peaked at number 56 on the Rolling Stone Top 100.

“Tusa” doesn’t tell us a complicated story yet it teaches us a simple but powerful message. The lyrics of the song speak about a girl who is depressed and angry because her boyfriend broke up with her. She looks fine and now she plays with the men, however when she is dancing at the disco and is put to play a certain song, she starts to cry, remembering her hex, she starts to call her but she doesn’t answer as he is probably with another girl.

Nicky Minaj does an incredible rap while teaching the girls that is better to have fun, to enjoy their lives, and not to worry about a man.

This song is pretty good for Spanish learners since is very friendly with the language, the Spanish sentences are easy and not too complicated and you can understand better what the song tries to transmit since Nicky Minaj's solo is sung in English. If we have to rate this out of ten, we will give it 4 points of difficulty.

If you liked “Tusa” we can also recommend you to check “Vuela, Vuela” an incredible song with easy lyrics if you want to practice new words without taking too much time trying to understand what it says.
