Clarent is kicking off a massive new chapter with MALDAD, his latest single dropping December 11 via Warner Music Latina, produced by Machael, and it’s got that sleek, unapologetic swagger that’s already lighting up the feeds like a fresh drop in the club.
This one’s all about the highs of the chase, where Clarent flips the script on a girl who ghosts him online but lights up when he rolls up dripping in designer. The beat from Machael is pure trap silk—crisp 808s that thump low, hi-hats slicing through like a sharp comeback, and a melody that hooks you with its laid-back menace.
Lyrically, it’s playful but pointed: verses on packing heat in the CM (that’s cash money for the uninitiated), pulling smiles from her face, and keeping the squad stacked with ballers ready to slide. Themes hit that familiar Puerto Rican urban pulse—flexing without forcing it, turning distance into desire, and stacking wins like it’s nothing. It’s short and sharp so far in the previews, but that “grra-grra, boom, boom” adlib sets the tone for a full track that’s built for replay, blending raw street talk with a chorus that sticks about guarding what’s real.
The rollout’s been buzzing since his Warner signing hit headlines yesterday—Clarent teased a snippet on his Instagram stories last night, captioned “verdad incoming,” and fans flooded the replies with fire emojis, tying it right into his Caparra Terrace roots. Video dropped today on YouTube, clocking views fast with moody night shots of San Juan streets that match the vibe, no big budget needed to keep it authentic. Streaming’s live everywhere now, his first official under the label after that independent grind.
For Clarent, MALDAD feels like the victory lap he deserves. The 20-something from Vega Baja burst onto the scene in 2023 with “Otra Ruta,” but it’s been a rocket ride since: collabs like “IA” with Mora that blew up playlists, “McLaren” with YOVNGCHIMI and Hydro charting global, and that Myke Towers remix on “Sport +” that spiked his streams 135% overnight. Signing with Warner? It’s him leveling up from terrace cyphers to world stages, evolving that gritty trap sound into something polished but never soft—proving Puerto Rico’s next wave isn’t waiting for permission.

Lyrics of MALDAD by Clarent
[Intro]
Gra-Gra, Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom
La Espero en La Salida, Tiene Que Hacer Tiempo Si a Mí Me Dan Vida (Si a Mí Me Dan Vida)
a Ella No Se Le Olvida Que Llamaba De Noche Casi No De Día, Ah
Me Ha Dicho Que Lo Siga, No Importa Qué Me Diga, Pa’ Mí Siempre Será Mía, Ah
Yo Causo Que Se Ría, Ese Culo Es Maldición, Pero Que Dios La Bendiga, Ah
Si La Saco, La Jalo (Oh), Ese Bobo Nunca Ha Sido Malo (Él Nunca Ha Sido Malo)
Si Coincide Con Otro, Ten-Tengo El Magazine Lleno De Hollow, Ey (Gra-Gra, Boom) [Verso 1]
Yo La Convertí en Diabla, Sabe Hacerme Daño
a Vece’ No Me Habla, Pero Yo La Gano
No, Janguea Como Dejá’
Ha Vivido ‘E To’, ‘Tá Volá’ Para Su Edad
Ella Las Hace Y Las Mano’ Se Las Lava, Ah-Ah-Ah
Lo Marea Cómo Graba, Ah-Ah-Ah
Ella Tiene Hombre’ De Má’, Pana’ De Má’ (Yeah), Ponlo Y Bam (Yeah)
Me-Me La Llevo De Gira Para Europa (Uh), Los Viaje’ First Class, Le Creé Maldad [Verso 2]
Volaíta’, No Me Sigue Ni Me Escribe Por Dm
Yo Siempre Tengo Cuarto’ en El Bulto Msm
Le-Le Gusta Cuando Bajo Fino, Ysl
Se Le Abren Las Bota’ Porque Yo No Bajo ‘E Design
Yo Soy Quien Le Saco La Sonrisa
Si Te Faltan Ballers, Tú Me Avisa’
Que Yo Tengo Tres Palo’, Y No Me Lagueo Pa’ Jalarlo
No Me Importa Uno Más Sumarlo
Tu Amiga Está Suelta Para La Que Está Cucando Al Baller, Ey
E-Esto No Es Un Dos Pa’ Uno (No), Si No, Hay Que Darle Muerte Con Flore’ [Coro]
La Espero en La Salida, Tiene Que Hacer Tiempo Si a Mí Me Dan Vida, Ey
a Ella No Se Le Olvida Que Llamaba De Noche Casi No De Día, Ey
Me Ha Dicho Que Lo Siga, No Me Importa Qué Diga, Pa’ Mí Siempre Será Mía
Yo-Yo Causo Que Se Ría, Ese Culo Es Maldición, Pero Que Dios La Bendiga
Si La Saco, La Jalo (Oh), Ese Bobo Nunca Ha Sido Malo
Y Si Coincide Con Otro, Tengo El Magazine Lleno De Hollow (Gra-Gra, Boom)
