The singer’s new song is undoubtedly about heartbreak, however it has some key phrases that could possibly refer to the brief romance between Bad Bunny and Jenner last year.

“Adivino” appears to be a cathartic release for Bad Bunny after his breakup with Kendall Jenner.

Many fans of the singer agree with this assessment, as several phrases in the artist’s new song seem to be dedicated to the famous model.

Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, the artist’s real name, partnered with Mike Towers to write the song, which appears on his latest album, “Nadie sabe lo que va a pasar mañana.”

“Adivino” is undoubtedly about heartbreak, however it has some key phrases that could possibly refer to the brief romance between Bad Bunny and Jenner last year.

Sale de bañarse en toalla, es modelo como Zendaya
No quiero ser un nombre más que en la lista se raya
Si quieres se guaya, pero dile que no me da la talla
Toa’ las cosa’ que hacemo’, ella las calla
Tiffany & Co. Le compré las pantalla”.

This phrase “las cosas que hacemo’ ella las calla” would explain the low profile the couple kept during their approximately eight-month relationship.

The couple was first seen together in February 2023. Rumors of a breakup emerged after the artist’s appearance on “Saturday Night Live,” last October.

During that time, there were no reports that Bad Bunny had given Kendall earrings from the well-known luxury brand Tiffany & Co., referred to in the song’s lyrics, but he was seen wearing a chain with a K on it.

The artist reveals in the song how much he loved the model, without forgetting that they were not from the same world. About a month before rumors of the breakup between the two spread, it was reported that friends close to Kendall believed that she would get back together with her ex-boyfriend, basketball player Devin Booker. So far there is no confirmation that this has happened.

Tú ere’ una diosa y como tú a otra yo no vo’a encontrar
Tú tampoco, en tu vida yo fui lo más real
Yo era fiel a tus ojo’ y a tus labio’ leal
Pero no, no somo’ igual, yeah
Tú fuiste uno de mis amore’, yo solamente fui otro ‘e tu’ ex
A vece’ me río leyendo los text
A vece’ me río, pero es del estrés
No sé cuándo fue que murió el interés
No sé si un “te amo” vale lo mismo cuando es en inglés.

It is possible that “Adivino” is not the only song on Benito’s new album that references Jenner, as there are also clues in the songs “Vou 787,″ “Fina,” and “Mónaco.”
