C. Tangana released his first solo song in three years this week. The track, titled 'Milko Freestyle,' marks his return to the rap genre after a period of artistic diversification.
The singer announced the release just hours before the song became available. The rapid turnaround generated immediate discussion across social media platforms.
Tangana stepped away from music following the 2021 release of 'El Madrileño.' During that time, he focused on film projects and other creative endeavors. He also started a family with Chilean photographer Rocío Aguirre.
The couple began their relationship in 2019 and welcomed their first child in April of this year. The new song addresses these recent life changes.
In the lyrics, Tangana reflects on the sudden shift in his daily routine. He sings, 'Sin tiempo para asimilarlo, mi niño ha nacido y mi vida ha cambiado / y otra vez pensando en el puto legado, en el nombre y el hambre que voy a dejarle.' The verse also mentions a friend who died a few months ago.
Promotional materials for the song and music video feature the artist's infant. The child appears in several shots, but the footage never shows the baby's face.
