Background

[edit]

In 2023, Tini had given some signs of the song and the album, revealing some parts of its production.[1] In the platform X (formerly Twitter), she shared a part of the song's lyrics in response to a fan.[2]

After blanking out her social media accounts and removing her profile picture, Tini announced her fifth full-length album, Un Mechón de Pelo on 26 March 2024; she revealed its title and release date, 11 April 2024.[3] On 27 March, she shared the cover artwork of the album and its track listing, in which "Posta" appears as the second song.[4] The singer confirmed the release of "Posta" as a single on 3 April 2024, one day before its release.[5] Parallel to the announcement, she stated: "After a long time, when I realized that I had believed many labels and comments about myself, I was already completely drowned. I started to talk about them and recognize them, I didn't want them to be part of my life anymore".[6]

Composition and theme

[edit]

The self-referential song addresses topics such as the "cost of fame" and the criticism that those who work in the entertainment industry are exposed to,[7] and the criticism she receives through social networks.[8][9] According to La Voz del Interior newspaper, the singer "invites [the listeners] to reflect on the media pressure and social expectations that surround certain artists".[7]

Music video

[edit]

A music video for "Posta" was released alongside the song on 4 April 2024. It features a comparison between Tini, the singer, and Martina (her birth name), as the "person behind her".[10][11] She is seen walking across a bridge, which symbolizes the passage from one stage to another, while spiritually the fact of being able to cross a bridge symbolizes "will and determination to achieve a final goal".[12]
