The reparto song "La Rizos," performed by *Las 2K* and *Chardo Chardemio*, has become a major hit on streaming platforms, especially on TikTok. It's hard to scroll through the app without encountering a video featuring the catchy chorus that goes, "Dime si le comento a la pura." However, the song has found its strongest audience in Spain, where various artists have reimagined the lyrics with different rhythms.
The Success of "La Rizos" in Spain
Despite its Cuban origins, "La Rizos" has particularly resonated in Spain. The song has climbed to the top of the *Éxitos España* chart on Spotify. The chorus, "Dime si le comento a la pura que conocí una muchacha de bajita estatura, de pelito rizado, la cara superchula y pa' qué hablar de su palo que es todo una locura," highlights the song's catchy appeal. Yet, many Spaniards are puzzled by Cuban expressions like "pura" and "palo."
Understanding Cuban Slang
While some listeners in Spain mistakenly hear "luna" instead of "pura," every Cuban knows that "pura" means mother, and "palo" refers to an intimate relationship. Another Cuban expression in the song is "Tú me tienes frito," which means someone is crazy about another person.
Popular Versions and Covers
One of the most popular renditions of "La Rizos" is by *Grupo Asere*, who infused the song with a flamenco vibe. Their TikTok video has amassed millions of views, and fans are loving their take on the hit. Another Spanish artist inspired by "La Rizos" is the young singer *Joana Santos*. In her song "La Rizos, Respuesta," she responds to *Las 2K* and *Chardo Chardemio* but uses "luna" instead of "pura."
Meet the Artists Behind the Hit
*Las 2K* is a Cuban group consisting of *El Pitu* and *Un Jesu*, as they are known on Instagram. Meanwhile, the real name of Cuban singer *Chardo Chardemio* is *Elionai Mesa*. Another notable song by him is "Ño qué rico," which features a base reminiscent of the global hit "Despacito."
