Feid and Ryan Castro Unveil Melancholic New Single ‘Mentira’

Colombian reggaetón stars Feid and Ryan Castro have officially dropped their latest collaboration, “Mentira,” marking their third joint effort. The track arrives following their previous hits “Monastery” and “Ritmo de Medallo,” the latter of which served as a tribute to their shared hometown of Medellín, Colombia. Beyond being a standout release for the duo, “Mentira” represents a pivotal moment in Castro’s career, serving as the lead single for his highly anticipated upcoming studio album.

The song delves into the complexities of modern relationships, specifically focusing on the erosion of trust caused by poor communication and the lingering uncertainty that often leads to a breakup. The melancholic reggaetón production provides a somber backdrop for the artists to trade verses about the games and dishonesty that can sink a partnership. “Fue el ego que a los dos nos confundió/ Navegando este barco se hundió,” Feid sings, reflecting on the shared responsibility for the relationship’s collapse. Castro complements this sentiment with his own perspective on the betrayal, noting, “Mentira, todo era mentira/ Tú tenías tu guardao’ mientras yo estaba de gira.”

The release of “Mentira” comes during a busy week for the genre, with other notable artists such as Ozuna, Omar Courtz, and Luis Fonsi also unveiling new music. As the industry continues to evolve, the collaboration between these two Colombian powerhouses highlights the enduring appeal of reggaetón’s emotional storytelling. Fans are currently invited to participate in the weekly #LatinMusic poll to vote for their favorite new release, as the scene continues to showcase a diverse array of talent.
