The Colombian star was all set to release a diss track against her ex-boyfriend, Pique. After hearing the song, fans from all over the world couldn’t help but praise the Colombian star for her courage to speak up. However, Pique hasn’t sat quietly either.
How did Gerard Pique respond to Shakira and her diss track?
The former Barcelona legend has been facing all the heat in the world after Shakira’s music session with Bizarrap. However, the Spaniard did not seem like one of those who would sit quietly for a few weeks and let the matter phase away. Pique has hit back at Shakira’s ‘strong-worded’ lyrics.

The lyrics read, “You traded a Ferrari for a Twingo, you traded a Rolex for a Casio”. While the fans couldn’t quite understand the comparisons that were being made here, they definitely knew it was for Pique. And rightly so, the former Barcelona soccer star responded to those lines in no time.

Currently, Pique is busy with his newly established ‘Kings League’. However, the soccer star shocked the fans after he arrived at the Kings League in a Renault Twingo. Prior to this, Pique also did take notice of the latter part of that lyric. In response, the soccer star wore a Casio watch on one of his live streams. He also told all his viewers that there were enough Casio watches for all the presidents of the teams in the Kings League.
Gerard Pique certainly isn’t sitting quietly and taking criticism. However, the soccer star is still yet to respond and directly talk about the song. While the fans are loving the banter, this was just one line from the song. Shakira has said a lot more about her ex-boyfriend.
What were some of the other hard-hitting lyrics?
According to Billboard, the lyrics translate to, “A wolf like me doesn’t have time for novices like you. I was too much for you, that’s why you’re now with someone more like yourself.” She continued, “You left me the in-laws as my neighbors, media outlets at my door and in debt with the Treasury. You thought you hurt me, but you made me stronger. Women don’t cry anymore, they cash in”.

These were a few more lines from Shakira’s epic diss track. The Colombian singer undoubtedly exceeded everyone’s expectations with this song. Fans didn’t quite know what to expect from this music session because Bizarrap specializes in rap. However, the Argentine DJ seems to have played along in order to help Shakira release her response to her ex-boyfriend’s infidelity.
