One of MC Solaar's first claims to fame was the rap he did on a level one French language education tape: "Comment t'appelles-tu?".
MC Solaar's first single, Bouge de là, was a French hit in 1990 that went platinum, as was his first album, Qui Sème le Vent Récolte le Tempo. His second album, Prose Combat, may be his most acclaimed.
As a rapper MC Solaar is known for the complexity and poetry of his songs, which rely on wordplay, lyricism, and philosophical inquiry. The music is based on dance rhythms and sensual grooves. In the English-speaking world, Solaar was signed by London acid jazz label Talkin' Loud and invited to record with British group Urban Species and Guru, a member of the famous and highly-acclaimed New York group Gang Starr.
MC Solaar gained new fans in North America in early 2004, when his 2001 song La Belle Et Le Bad Boy was featured on the final episode of the popular television series Sex and the City. MC Solaar remains best-known outside of France for his work on Guru's Jazzmatazz project and as a guest rapper on the Missy Elliott track All N My Grill. Out of Guru and Solaar's collaboration, the single Le Bien, Le Mal (The Good, The Bad) was a popular Hip Hop/Dance crossover hit receiving playtime on MTV.
hasta la vista mi amor
MC Solaar Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
¡Qué viva la revolución!
Rapero número uno, el grito en la canción
Suena el papel del líder como Fidel Castro
Tengo el micrófono amigo, cuidado
Solaar, soy al mismo tiempo ser y estar, estrella
La gente de India me llama star
Paz al rap de Barcelona, de Costa Rica, alianza
A mí me gustaba la chica llamada Raquel
Tengo la voz, la fuerza, estilo y papel
Si te gusta, vas a bailar como Ibiza
Soy como el sol, hijo de África
Eso es amor sin dolor (Hasta la vista)
Hasta próxima, mi amor
Eso es amor sin dolor (Hasta la vista)
Hasta la vista, mi amor
Solaarito me llamo, vengo de high up
Me gusta la hija del patrón, Esmeralda
No siesta, solo fiesta, soy Desperado
A pesar de todo, la chica me dijo "te quiero"
Con ella, cada día, caminando
Sex siete días por semana, enamorado pero
Tengo tantos problemas con pistoleros
Por plata y dineros, vengo de los barrios
Tengo que salir, sabes que no soy un fumista
Es que no tengo miedo, come by y escucha
Deberé buscar a mi amor, además
Tengo todas las cartas, porque estoy al quinto as
Eso es amor sin dolor (Hasta la vista)
Hasta próxima, mi amor
Eso es amor sin dolor (Hasta la vista)
Hasta la vista, mi amor
California, con sus bandidos
Caballos y ladrones, cactus y perros
Chinos de Hong Kong, huang chong que ni gringos ?
Veo a Esmeralda, mi amor, mi luz, mi voz
Para ti, no barata, no barato
Viaje de boda querida, llama a tu mamá
Te quiero, quiero que me quieras corazón
No soy mentiroso; sí, tienes razón
Hasta la vista, sin titular la película
Hasta la próxima en otra cinemateca
La gente se levanta, dirección la discoteca
Solo queda Solaar aislado, una voz canta
Eso es amor sin dolor
Hasta próxima, mi amor
Eso es amor sin dolor
Hasta la vista, mi amor
Eso es amor sin dolor
Hasta próxima, mi amor
Eso es amor sin dolor
Hasta la vista, mi amor
The first few lines of the song, “Hasta siempre, ¡Qué viva la revolución! Rapero número uno, el grito en la canción” express MC Solaar's support for the Cuban Revolution and his aspiration to become the #1 rapper. He references Fidel Castro as the leader, paralleling his own role as a leader with the microphone as his tool. MC Solaar then introduces himself as both being and existing as an individual and a star, known internationally as “star” to the people of India. He sends love to rap groups from different parts of the world, including Barcelona and Costa Rica, and especially to those in the third world and South America.
MC Solaar reminiscences about a girl named Raquel in the middle part of the song. He proclaims his talent and swagger, and states that anyone who likes his music will dance as if they were in Ibiza. However, he also acknowledges that he has faced challenges and has had trouble with “pistoleros” related to money and his upbringing in a rougher area. He assures the listener that he isn't a smoker and has no fear, and that he will have to go searching for love.
The chorus, “Eso es amor sin dolor (Hasta la vista) Hasta próxima, mi amor” roughly translates to “That’s love without pain (Until next time) Goodbye for now, my love” and expresses a longing for love without hurt, and a hope to see their love again.
