"The lyrics throughout the album—all are in Spanish—dwell on sensual pleasures. Bodily urges for food and sex are continuous threads, and so is conspicuous consumption of high-end fashion. The record’s most prominent theme, though, is the wonder of creative expression and the eventual hollowness of fame."
"Going back to that first track, about the joy of self-contradiction, Rosalía wants to live large and hang out with the rich and powerful, but she also wants to be taken seriously as an artist."
"The closing track, “Sakura,” is a flamenco number that’s in part about how fame never lasts and shouldn’t be the measure of an artist’s ultimate worth.She compares her time as a star to a cherry blossom, and notes that her moment in the spotlight will probably have a lifespan just as short as that of the flower."
