Colombian singer Shakira has announced the release of a new song called “Monotonia” in which she appears to criticize ex-boyfriend Gerard Pique. The song’s YouTube video garnered over 14 million views in less than 24 hours after its release.
The Colombian star announced the release of the new song and video on Facebook by posting a photo of herself holding a poster of a bleeding hearts.
Shakira appears to be channeling all her emotions into a new track titled “Monotonia,” which is full of references to “narcissism” and men’s “cold as Christmas” attitudes, according to US Magazine.
A video for a bachata song that Shakira recorded with a Puerto Rican rapper. Ozuna is directed by the Colombian star himself and Jaume de la Iguana.
The video of the new hit seems to reflect the pain of a woman suffering from love.
According to Pitchfork, it was filmed in Spain and begins with Shakira, dressed casually in her home clothes, in a supermarket, opening a bag of chips and starting to eat them, a gesture people often make when they’re suffering and seeking relief from junk food .
A Puerto Rican rapper then blows her up with a bazooka, ripping her heart out of her chest, which she then tries to protect.
In the chorus of the song, it seems that he is trying to find the culprit of the breakup, citing boredom as the main reason, justifying the two lovers.
However, another lyric seems to blame the man he accuses of forgetting everything that was between them, a reproach often made by ex-partners: “Suddenly you weren’t the same anymore / You left me because of your narcissism / You forgot who I once was.”
At the end of the song, Shakira says that it is better for them to break up because she loves herself more, and this is the necessary ending.
The breakup was “incredibly difficult”
At the beginning of June, the couple officially confirmed that they had decided to separate, which was “incredibly difficult” for the whole family, admitted Shakira, who has two children with Pique – 9-year-old Milan and 9-year-old Sasha Sim.
The relationship between the Colombian singer and the Barcelona star lasted 11 years. They met shortly before the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, when Shakira’s music video for “Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)”, the tournament’s official song, was released.
Since then, they have been a couple with some breaks due to some alleged affairs of a football player.
“It’s very difficult to talk about it, especially because it’s the first time I’m talking about this situation in an interview,” Shakira told Elle magazine.
“I was silent and just tried to process everything,” he also says about this in the new hit “Monotony”.
