In their bold new song Heroina, artists Sevdaliza and La Joaqui team up to deliver a powerful statement on femininity, identity, and inner strength. The song blends poetic verses with raw attitude, creating a striking mix of mythology, sensuality, and personal reflection.
At its core, ‘Heroina’ is about owning who you are as a woman, in all your complexity. Sevdaliza opens the track by confronting how society often views women—especially women of color or immigrant backgrounds. Referring to herself as “Tehran tailor-made” and “chiselled like a Medici Madonna,” she turns herself into a symbol of timeless beauty and power. Her verse is about reclaiming control, rejecting labels, and declaring her worth unapologetically: “Hang me in the Louvre, La Sevdaliza.”
The chorus repeats the names of powerful goddesses from different cultures—like Anahita, Saraswati, Aphrodite, and Mama Quilla—reminding us that the strength of women has existed across time, religions, and continents. It’s a celebration of divine femininity, drawing from ancestral voices that still resonate today.
La Joaqui brings her own energy with a more urban, grounded tone. Her verse flips stereotypes and plays with contrasts—sweet and dangerous, romantic and tough. She embraces independence and sexuality without apology, representing a kind of woman who navigates love, survival, and power on her own terms.
Even the title “Heroina” carries dual meaning—it refers to a heroic woman, but also echoes the Spanish word for heroin, hinting at themes of obsession, danger, and desire. It’s a subtle way of showing how society both craves and fears powerful women.
In the end, “Heroína” is more than a song—it’s a declaration. Through mythological references, sharp lyrics, and contrasting voices, Sevdaliza and La Joaqui remind us that women are not one-dimensional. They are fierce, sacred, flawed, confident, and constantly evolving—and that’s where their power lies.
The music video, directed by the talented and well-known Tanu Muino, is just as powerful and rich in symbolism as the song itself.
