C. Tangana goes to rock with Andrés Calamaro on the song 'Hong Kong'

“This is a movie and there was a role written for me.

This is destiny ”, says Andrés Calamaro at the end of the

Hong Kong

video

.

He tells it to C. Tangana on the roof of a Madrid building, in what seems like an improvised scene after recording the song.

The two are delighted, they hug and smoke.

The last hours seem like a spree.

And it surely was.

C. Tangana is gradually releasing the songs from his album

El madrileño,

which will finally see the light of next Friday the 26th. In his collaboration with Andrés Calamaro, he has gone to the Argentinean territory:

Hong Kong

is the Madrid's first foray into the rock.

"I have a flower in my ass and a camel in Hong Kong. / I have a rocket in my pants. / I have a flower in my ass and a geisha in Japan. / Your flags in my heart," they sing in the chorus.

The theme begins with an exchange of verses between the two singers.

It is not until the arrival of the chorus that electric guitars and rock fundamentals enter.

There is

autotune

, of course, but

rock

concepts prevail

.

"In my fucking life I would have imagined that in the best album of my career there could be a

rock and roll

with drums and electric guitars", wrote C. Tangana.

At the same time as

Hong Kong,

the artist has released

Nominao,

his collaboration with Jorge Drexler.

In this song he also leaves the leading role to Drexler.

The lyrics tell the story of someone who was important, but who is past his time.

“You had the cover not so long ago.

/ On your tit my tattooed phrase.

/ Now I have to wait at the entrance.

/ There is no longer a VIP or a reserved table.

/ Not anymore, not anymore, not anymore ”, says the song.

Videos of

Hong Kong

and

PAYROLL

are connected.

All three edges appear on both, and there are two repeating locations: a forklift and a nightclub.

There are girls, drums, drinks, hugs and canallitas comments.

C. Tangana's activity doesn't stop at music.

The artist is filming as an actor with the Catalan director Isaki Lacuesta

One Year, One Night,

which focuses on the attack in the Bataclan room in Paris, where 89 people died in 2015 in a terrorist attack.

The film is based on the book

Peace, love and death metal,

by Ramón González,

survivor of the tragedy.

Also participating in the film are the Argentine Nahuel Pérez Biscayart, the French Noémie Merlant and the Spanish Quim Gutiérrez.
