Karol G Responds to Criticism Over ‘+57’ Lyrics: ‘I Still Have a Lot to Learn’


Karol G responded to criticism over lyrics on "+57" -- featuring J Balvin, Feid and more -- that some have construed as sexualizing minors.

Karol G attends the Second Annual Rare Impact Fund Benefit Supporting Youth Mental Health, hosted by Selena Gomez, at Nya Studios on Oct. 24, 2024 in Los Angeles. Karol G gave a lengthy response Monday (Nov. 11) to the criticism her new song “+57” — featuring J Balvin, Feid, Maluma and other Colombian acts — as it faces backlash over lyrics that some have construed as sexualizing minors. Karol ended her post once again thanking her fans for “their unconditional love and support.” She concluded, “I value it very much, and the artists who participated with me in the song, I keep in my heart the beautiful energy with which we worked that day.”
