La Yegros resides in the pulsing heart of cosmopolitan Buenos Aires, but her family hails from the tropical climates found in the rural rain forests of the north, bordering Brazil. She received classical, conservatory training in music and got her break when she played before thousands as part of the De La Guarda experimental theatre.
Confident and vibrant in approach, she’s been championed by MTV Iggy, as well as by Fader Magazine, who hailed La Yegros’ “raw urgency while sounding completely relaxed and conversational”. Listening to her sing, there’s the swagger of a Kelis or even Jamaican dancehall combined with the indomitable homespun wisdom of a vintage soul queen, such as Laura Lee or Angie Stone.
There’s a sass to her singing, at once fresh and urgent yet aged in experience and attitude, that cuts through the male-dominated contemporary cumbia, drawing on both deep folk traditions and cutting edge beats.

ATORMENTADA
La Yegros Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Atormentada estoy con tu mirada
Como se apaga el fuego cuando hay llamas
Como se apaga ay dios, como se apaga
Atormentada espero, atormentada
Atormentada espero tu llegada
Como me quema el sol cuando me llamas
Como me quema amor y no se apaga
Amorcito lindo amorcito
Amorcito lindo amorcito
Como olvidar que nos vimos
Como olvidar que nos vimos
Como olvidar lo que fuimos
Como olvidarte mi amor
Amor amor amor X 3
Atormentada estoy, atormentada
Atormentada estoy con tu mirada
Como se apaga el fuego cuando hay llamas
Como se apaga ay dios, como se apaga
Amorcito lindo amorcito
Amorcito lindo amorcito
Como olvidar que nos vimos
Como olvidar que nos vimos
Como olvidar lo que fuimos
Como olvidarte mi amor
Como olvidar que nos vimos
Como olvidar que nos vimos
Como olvidar lo que fuimos
Como olvidarte mi amor
Amor amor amor
The lyrics to La Yegros' song "Atormentada" speak of the torment and passion that the singer feels in regards to her lover. The repetition of the phrase "atormentada estoy" emphasizes the overwhelming feeling of torment that she experiences. She is tormented by her lover's gaze and longs for their arrival, comparing her burning desire to the intensity of the sun's heat. The metaphor of comparing the fire of passion to the extinction of fire highlights the paradoxical nature of the situation - the more she longs for her lover's presence, the more she is consumed by the intensity of her desire.
The chorus repeats the phrase "amorcito lindo amorcito" which translates to "cute little love." This adds an innocent and playful tone to the otherwise intense lyrics. The singer continues to query how she could forget the memory of their encounter, what they were, and how she could possibly forget her love, as they are intertwined in her thoughts and emotions. The song ends with three repetitions of "amor" emphasizing that no matter how tormented she may feel, her love for the person remains strong.
