Pink Pablo Drops ‘ME QUEDO AKÍ’ Video with Paopao


The collab is off of Pink Pablo’s new project ALL I DREAM

Puerto Rico’s rising star Pink Pablo feels like the new prince of dark-wave urbano and reggaeton, and he’s known for crafting super cinematic videos to go with his songs, which often straddle moodiness and a little whimsy. His latest project ALL I DREAM is full of his signature sounds, and perhaps no track captures his emotional vibe like the standout “ME QUEDO AKÍ,” featuring Latin music’s favorite sad girl Paopao.

Today, Pablo is releasing the video for the collab, which premieres exclusively on Rolling Stone. The art direction is as stunning and dramatic as the song’s production: Pablo and Paopao take turns singing about a romance they can’t let go of, all while the music twists and turns into unexpected and increasingly urgent electronic arrangements.

Pablo tells Rolling Stone that the song came from personal experience. “On a week that me and my girlfriend (now my ex) separated, thinking of ending it all, I headed to the studio. I didn’t want to make a decision I’d regret so, inevitably I wrote a song about it to understand what I was feeling,” he says. “The first part of ‘ME QUEDO AKI’ was made that day. It’s a song about all the defects we have and all the baggage we carry. Can they love you and all of your shortcomings?”

ALL I DREAM also includes collaborations with rapper PJ Sin Suela and Lucie LaRue. The nine-track project follows Pablo’s EP road 2 neverland, which came out in 2023 and included “veo luces” and “perdimos el control.” “It’s a rebelliousness against the expectations,” he told Rolling Stone of that project. “Sometimes that rebelliousness leads to bad habits or just delving too much into relationships or just trying to be very reactive. So [road 2 neverland] is just ‘I’m living life. I’m having fun.’” 

So much of his career, he shared, has been about trusting his gut and following his instincts. “It’s all about saying yes to the present. It’s all about not evaluating every move you make. It’s all about trusting that there’s an intelligence that will pour out if you just let it,” he said.
