Isabella Lovestory and Villano Antillano Go Fishing

By Ivan GuzmanDec 19, 2023

Isabella Lovestory and Villano Antillano are fishy girls. Their new song “Fuetazo,” which roughly translates to ‘a hard punch or blow,’ cements their status as bad bitches of the sea. Embodying their true form as mermaids, the Honduran perreo pop princess and buzzy Puerto Rican rapstress come together in a moment of true “bokisucia” bliss, tag-teaming over an infectious reggaeton beat by Kamixlo, Dinamarca, and frequent Lovestory collaborator Chicken.

The video sees the two flapping their mermaid tails on the shore, grabbing drive-thru food in a truck bed full of water, and grinding in corsets as if fulfilling some sort of Latina power ritual. “[The song] will scientifically send an electroshock directly to the pineal gland, subsequently travel all the way to the toes which will alert the shoes to start dancing,” Lovestory remarks. The collaboration seems like a match made in heaven, and adds another banger to both singers’ vaults of sex-fueled, sometimes sinister Latin pop earworms.

PAPER sat down with Isabella and Villano to play an aquatic-themed, 21 Questions-inspired game in which the two reveal their deepest darkest thoughts and subsequent plans for global domination.

What's your favorite water animal and why?

Isabella Lovestory: Mermaids!! I’ve always been fascinated by them. Growing up going to my grandparents home in Puerto Cortes, Honduras, I always pretended to be one. I’m pretty sure I saw a real one in Greece last year, after witnessing a shooting star. Dolphins too are super cute and silly, I had a dream of petting a fuzzy one recently. My grandpa was a fisherman so my connection to the sea is infinite. Sirenas HMU <3

Villano Antillano: Dolphins. They’re so smart and evil.

Would you rather explore the bottom of the ocean or space?

Isabella: BOTTOM OF OCEAN! No ocean gate tho, more like Poseidon invited me.

Villano: Space, personally.

What’s your biggest pet peeve?

Isabella: Stupid men who talk over women.

Villano: Bad liars.

How will you new track “Fuetazo” help heal the world?

Isabella: It will scientifically send an electroshock directly to the pineal gland, subsequently travel all the way to the toes which will alert the shoes to start dancing. The dancing will then erase all bad memories and replace them with those of the times you felt most confident and a bad bitch. As well as when you were once a little mermaid in your childhood dreams. Then it will make you wanna go and make the best decisions you could ever make. ;)

Villano: Boss girl, Alpha Female representation.
