The stylistic range of left-field pop artist Kali Uchis is reflected in the variety of her collaborators – an extensive genre-crossing list that includes Tyler, the Creator, Gorillaz, Daniel Caesar, Juanes, and BadBadNotGood. A singer, songwriter, and producer, as well as a video director, Uchis truly arrived on her own with the self-released Por Vida (2015), an EP that led to a deal with Virgin EMI. By the time Uchis released her lively debut full-length, the Top Five Billboard R&B/hip-hop hit Isolation (2018), she had already been nominated for Grammy awards through her featured appearances on Daniel Caesar's "Get You" and Juanes' "El Ratico."
Kali Uchis experienced the majority of her upbringing in Virginia and also spent time in her parents' native Colombia. As a teenager growing up in Alexandria, just south of Washington, D.C., she learned to play piano and saxophone and also developed a deep interest in visual arts. Her recorded debut was made in 2012 with the self-released mixtape Drunken Babble. Within three years, she had several singles to her credit, including "Know What I Want" and "Lottery," typically promoted with videos she directed, as well as collaborations with Snoop Dogg, GoldLink, Tyler, the Creator, and Major Lazer. Following the 2015 independent release of Por Vida, a free digital-download EP with tracks produced by Diplo, Kaytranada, and Tyler, Uchis started releasing her material through major-label Virgin EMI. A DJ Dahi-tweaked version of Por Vida's "Ridin Round," issued that November after a move to Los Angeles, was the artist's first single for the major label. "Only Girl," a relaxed Kaytranada production featuring Vince Staples and the Internet's Steve Lacy, followed in April 2016. She was also featured that year on Daniel Caesar's "Get You."
Throughout 2017, Uchis added to her discography of featured appearances via tracks by Juanes, Gorillaz, Tyler, Bootsy Collins, and Miguel, and she previewed her debut album with the singles "Tyrant" (featuring Jorja Smith) and "Nuestro Planeta" (featuring Reykon). By the end of the year, "Get You" had been nominated for a Grammy in the category of Best R&B Performance, and Juanes' "El Ratico" made Uchis a Latin Grammy nominee when it was up for Record of the Year. January 2018 saw the release of the BadBadNotGood-produced single "After the Storm" (featuring Tyler and Bootsy). Uchis released her debut album, Isolation, three months later. It debuted at number 32 on the Billboard 200 and entered the R&B/hip-hop chart at number four.

Kali Uchis Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Haces todo lo que diga, yeah
Si estás conmigo solo mando yo, yeah
Aquí no es cómo y cuando pides
Mando, aquí yo mando
Si quieres conmigo, vete acostumbrando (yeah, yeah, eh)
Tantos me están buscando
Yo tomo las decisiones, yo escojo las posiciones
Puedes tener los cojones, pero yo los pantalones
No, no, she can't do it like me
Throw it down, wish that he could see the look upon your face (no, no, no)
Eh, I'm your little mamacita (mamacita)
Haces todo lo que diga, yeah
Si estás conmigo solo mando yo, yeah
Aquí no es cómo y cuando pidas
Mando, aquí yo mando (soy, soy)
Sé que soy tu obsesión como Romeo Santos (Romeo Santos)
Bandos me están buscando (no, no)
Y si no te gusta, ya otro
I'm 'bout to play para mí
Do what I want, don't need a thing
Boss, but you know what I be
Classy (bad), but still your freak, bae
They can't do it like me (so bad)
No, they can't do it like me, bae
I know I ride that d
Same way I did this beat, bae
I had no business, I'm bossy
Yo quiero diamonds, I'm flossy
They wanna know what it cost me
De esas perras me cansé
Pensabas que yo era fácil
Soy una perra de clase (yeah yeah)
No, I don't care if they watchin'
Soy más cara que Versace (woh)
Prendo ese fuego a donde yo llego
Y quieren llegarme, pero yo lo freno
Luego, luego, ya vemos luego, yeh
Said if you like it, then I'll see you later

The song "¡aquí yo mando!" by Kali Uchis and Rico Nasty revolves around the idea of a strong and dominant woman who is in control and leads the relationship. The lyrics portray this message clearly with lines such as "Si estás conmigo solo mando yo," meaning that if you're with me, I'm the only one in charge. The word "mando" is repeated multiple times throughout the song, emphasizing the idea of being in control.
The lyrics portray the idea that this woman is not just a simple girlfriend but a "little mamacita." She demands respect, and her partner will do anything she says because she always makes the right decisions. The woman is confident, self-assured and knows what she wants. She is "Classy (bad), but still your freak, bae" and "more expensive than Versace."
The song is empowering and sends a clear message about women taking the lead in relationships. It encourages women to be confident and assertive and not to be afraid to take charge. The lyrics are catchy, and the rhythm is upbeat and energetic, making it a great song to dance to.
