Shakira New Song Rabiosa Ft Pitbull |
The English version of the song was recorded featuring vocals from Rapper Pit Bull while the Spanish version of the song features the vocals of El Cata. Rabiosa is a song with Latin and Rap influences. Tune of the song has distinctive Latin flavor sprinkled with spices of Dominican meringue music. The song has fast paced track and steady dance beat throughout. The lyrical theme of the song is flirty where Shakira and Pit Bull sing about each other’s sex appeal by mixing some Spanish words in English verses. It received positive reviews from music critics worldwide Along with the Billboard. The song ends with code-switching which is a type of phrasing that combines both English and Spanish words.
The music video of the song was shot in Barcelona, Spain in late April. On May18, 2011, a 30 seconds teaser was previewed on Shakira’s official website. Shakira was featured both as Blonde as well as Brunette wearing a French Bob Wig. Even though the song is filled with flirting between Shakira and Pit Bull, Pit Bull does not appear in the video which seems disappointing. In the beginning of the video the wig wearing Shakira enters a fenced in party where she makes way to the guy with whom she starts flirting. Then the scene changes to with long Blonde hair pole dancing and continues flirting with the guy. The guy then pushes her into a dry bath tub filled with coloring plastic balls and teasingly guy throws more at her. In the end of the video we see Shakira ending her pole dancing splitting her legs.
