Shakira’s new single “Soltera” is a powerful anthem for anyone looking to reclaim their independence and embrace self-love after heartbreak. The track explores themes of freedom and fun, with Shakira unapologetically expressing her right to enjoy life on her own terms.
The lyrics, “Yo tengo derecho de portarme mal / Pa’ pasarla bien” (I have the right to misbehave / To have a good time), are a declaration of self-empowerment. Rather than focusing on the pain of a breakup, Shakira flips the narrative, showing that life post-relationship can be exhilarating and full of possibilities.
By portraying singleness as an exciting adventure, filled with beach outings, cocktails, and the freedom to do as she pleases, Shakira turns the traditional breakup song into a celebration of autonomy. For anyone going through a similar experience, “Soltera” serves as a reminder that happiness and fulfillment can come from within, without the need for external validation. With “Soltera,” Shakira sends a clear message: loving yourself and living life to the fullest is the ultimate act of empowerment.
