A company with more than 100 workers that manages advertising contracts, a soccer team and an eSports team, real estate companies, isotonic drinks, and even a trading card exchange; Gerard Piqué’s millionaire empire does not stop growing. With so much to do, it is normal that she barely had time to dedicate to Shakira, and that is precisely what she seems to be complaining about in her new song, Empty Cup, which premiered worldwide this past dawn.
A new single in which he joins fellow Colombian Manuel Turizo and in which it is more than clear that at that time he would have been a little fed up with the fact that the father of his children devoted so much time to his work -and for what now we know, to their workers- and less to take care of their relationship.
According to the lyrics of this new song, the one from Barranquilla had been demanding Piqué’s attention for some time, who once again becomes the target of Shakira’s darts, with phrases like: “You are always busy with so much business. It would be nice , my love, a little leisure”, “You don’t have to be a poet to sweeten my ear, drop the phone, use your hand with me” or “I know you’re hot, but I’m much hotter” make it clear that the song, once again, she is full of rebukes.
If Shakira has decided to send more messages to her ex, Gerard Piqué, with her velvety voice between her characteristic pop and urban rhythms, we don’t know. Now, let’s remember that this song was recorded months ago, when the artist was still in Spain and was the focus of the press due to her controversial break with the former soccer player.
A moment in which Piqué had already made his relationship with Clara Chía official, while Shakira spoke of that cooling off in their relationship. A crisis that precipitated the beginning of the end and that, as reported after the couple announced their separation, would have come about after a trip that the couple made to Orlando (USA) in January 2022, after the that their relationship starts to go downhill. Shakira would have done everything possible to save her relationship, but Piqué would have already closed the doors to try again, asking Shakira for a time apart.
The release of this new song has been accompanied by an official video clip on YouTube, in which Shakira plays a mermaid. Recorded last March at the Parc Audiovisual de Catalunya, in Terrasa, the singer couldn’t be more proud of the project. “We made a movie,” said the singer on social networks shortly before its premiere.
Always so busy with so much business,
It would be nice, my love, a little leisure.
Relax here on the sofa and give me your attention.
You don’t have to be a poet to sweeten my ear.
Drop the phone, use your hand with me.
I know you’re hot, but I’m much hotter.
I’ve been thirsty for you for a while, I don’t know why.
I am left wanting more and wanting to drink from an empty glass.
I’ve been thirsty for you for a while, I don’t know why.
I’m left wanting more and wanting to drink from an empty cup, ah, ah, ah.
I’ve been thirsty for a while.
You don’t have to be a poet to sweeten my ear.
Drop the phone, use your hand with me
I know you’re hot, but I’m much hotter.
I don’t know why about you.
Always so busy with so much business,
It would be nice, my love, a little leisure.
Relax here on the sofa and give me your attention.
I’ve been thirsty for you for a while, I don’t know why
I am left wanting more and wanting to drink from an empty glass.
I’ve been thirsty for you for a while, I don’t know why.
I am left wanting more and wanting to drink from an empty glass.
I’ve been thirsty for you for a while, I don’t know why.
I’m left wanting more and wanting to drink from an empty cup, ah, ah, ah.
I’ve been thirsty for you for a while, I don’t know why.
I’ve been thirsty for you for a while, I don’t know why.
I am left wanting more and wanting to drink from an empty glass.
