"La Original" (stylized as "La_Original.mp3") is a song by Argentine singers Emilia and Tini. It was released on 2 November 2023 through Sony Music Latin as the fifth single from Emilia's second studio album, .MP3, in tandem with the record.[1]

The song was co-written by both artists alongside rapper Duki and its producers Andrés Torres and Mauricio Rengifo.

## Background and release

[edit]

On October 20, 2023, Emilia revealed the tracklist for her second studio album .MP3, keeping in secret the artists that she collaborated.[2] On October 29, the singer revealed that "La Original" would be a collaboration with Tini.[3] Two days later, both artists announced the song's release with a teaser on their social media accounts.[4] "La Original" was released for digital download and streaming on November 3, three hours before the release of its respective album.[5][1]

## Composition

[edit]

"La Original" is an electropop and house song.[6][1] According to SongData.io it is written in the key of F Minor, with a moderately fast tempo of 167 beats per minute.[7] Regarding the meaning of the song, Emilia mentioned:

> "I always try to show all parts of myself, but I feel like with all the criticism we sometimes face, we hide and don't want to show our true selves. "La Original" is about that. With all the criticism, you sometimes hide and you avoid showing more of yourself in fear of what they'll say about you. Tini and I decided to do the opposite and show that it's okay to "portarse mal" when there's no one there to judge or point fingers".[1]

## Music video

[edit]

The accompanying video video for "La Original" was directed by Francisco Ballve and released simultaneously with the song on Emilia's YouTube/VEVO channel.[8] It shows both artists modeling and dancing in runway in signature 2000s outfits.[6][9] The video ends with Emilia giving Tini a kiss,[10] which has been described as a reference to the kiss between Madonna and Britney Spears at the 2003 MTV Video Music Awards.[11][12]
