Venezuelan singer Rosy Cuevas tells a story of personal triumph in "Te solté" (I Let You Go), her latest single. The song debuted on digital platforms on September 4th and presents a more personal and introspective side of the artist.
"“I composed the song; it’s quite intimate, sublime, and personal, as are the lyrics. It gives the feeling of freedom, of being able to let go of something or someone you’ve been holding onto for a long time, after so much pain, the emotional weight you feel, and in the end you breathe a sigh of relief and freedom,” Cueva commented in a press release about the song.
'Te solté' speaks of the release from grief caused by a romantic disappointment, becoming a kind of tool in a healing process and closing cycles.
Rising from the ruins
For Rosy Cueva, that is a "very dark" path but necessary to realize and accept that the best thing is to turn the page, evolve and focus on what's next.
"I let you go, I finally let you go. You were a hurricane in my chest. You broke me, yes, I accept it," the artist sings in the chorus of the song.
"From the ruins I rise. Despite everything, I managed to move forward, to continue with my life (…) What was once my prison is now the gateway to what's to come. You are not the end of my story, you were just another twist. What I saw as defeat was strength to come,” the vocalist, originally from San Antonio de los Altos (Miranda state), also sings later on.
The production, which features Argentine guitarist Virginia Morillas and Ecuadorian pianoist Daniel Noguera, also has a music video on YouTube filmed in San Antonio de los Altos.
Since was very young
Previously, Rosy Cueva made a name for herself with songs like 'Más y más', '¿Y ahora qué?', 'Dime' y 'Almost, almost'. After a forced break due to the pandemic, he released 'It Hurts', a song that fused the romantic ballad with elements of regional Mexican music (specifically the corrido).
Cueva showed an interest in singing from childhood. With more than a decade of formal training, he learned to play multiple instruments such as the guitar, the cuatro, the piano, and the ukulele, tools he actively uses to compose his own songs.
She debuted in the music industry with her debut single titled 'Casi, casi', a song that defined what she herself calls her "musical DNA", an intimate and authentic pop/romantic mix with lyrics that seek to connect with the experiences of the public.
