According to her website, "Leading up to the release of “No Te Enamores”, Paloma’s first release since signing to Sony Music Latin, the buzz around New York/Chilean singer-songwriter, Paloma Mami, continues to grow due to the viral success of her independently produced single and video “Not Steady.” Since its release in June 2018, “Not Steady” has surpassed over 20M cumulative streams to date (audio + video) catching the attention of Latin powerhouses such as Maluma, J Balvin, Farruko, production collective Hear This Music and more.... With a delicate but powerful voice, her music is a distinct fusion of Latin Urban, R&B, and Trap / Soul."

Pull up to the scene
Me ves al entrar, soy mucho pa' ti (mucho pa ti)
Hair and nails on fleek
Toda natural desde que nací (nací, -cí)
Un tumbao' royal, Fendi, Louis V
Caro para ti, pero not for me (not for me)
Esto no lo elegí
Comin' from New York, pues yo soy así (sh)
Gota a gota, voy fly de pies a la cabeza
Gota a gota, son hundred thousand en mis prendas
Gota a gota, tasty, exótica, guanábana (oh)
Gota a gota-ta-ta, no estoy fácil (fácil, fácil)

Las penas van al mar
Y todo mi dinero va para comprar (yeah)
Mirar pero no tocar
Mis curvas solo sirven para derrapar
Las penas van al mar (pa allá)
Y todo mi dinero va para comprar (bags)
Mirar pero no tocar
Mis curvas solo sirven para derrapar
Gota a gota, voy fly de pies a la cabeza
Gota a gota, son hundred thousand en mis prendas
Gota a gota, tasty, exótica, guanábana (oh)
Gota a gota-ta-ta, no estoy fácil (fácil, fácil)
