Review

1) Summary of the Story in the Lyrics

The lyrics depict a defiant rejection of gossip about the narrator’s supposed heartbreak ("¿según quién?" / "says who?"). Maluma and Carin León mock rumors that they’re still pining for an ex ("dizque me vieron gritando tu nombre / Borracho en un bar"), asserting they’ve moved on ("Hace mucho que yo ya te olvidé"). The song flips the script on Latin music’s classic despecho (heartbreak) tropes with sarcastic swagger.

2) Emotional Impact & Storytelling Technique

The track blends Maluma’s reggaetón flow with Carin’s norteño grit, creating a playful duel of masculine bravado. The call-and-response chorus ("¿según quién?") turns gossip into a punchline, while accordion riffs and dembow beats fuse regional Mexican and urban styles. The lyrics unfold like a bar argument, with exaggerated scenarios ("te tengo guardada en el pecho") mocking dramatic ex-lovers.

3) Themes & Tone

No explicit language. The song satirizes heartbreak clichés with a tone of cocky amusement—more "whatever, haters" than genuinely wounded.

4) Music Video Relation

The video turns a cowboy bar into the ultimate rumor-free zone. Maluma and Carin, decked in full cowboy regalia, slide beer mugs down the bar like poker chips while singing "According to who?" with a wink. The bar breathes authenticity - the white-bearded regular sipping quietly, the waitress serving with a knowing smile, pool players unfazed by the commotion.

Every detail tells a story: the bartender wiping counters, empty bottles being cleared, that flashing neon sign declaring "SEGÚN QUIÉN" like a battle cry. When they take the tiny stage, the song becomes an anthem, with patrons clinking mugs in unison. The blonde who ends up applauding? She's the same woman sweeping indifferently earlier - now won over by these cowboys who'd rather toast to life than dwell on gossip. The lesson? Live so joyfully that no one believes the sad versions.
