"Suéltame" is an urban tango song, keeping in theme with the album's musical direction of honoring different genres of Latin music. The song's lyrics describe a date in a nightclub where the singers flirt with a lover, while respecting each-other's barriers in sex. The song received positive reviews, with critics complimenting the song's "chill" and "catchy" melody and its sensual lyrics.

The song's music video was directed by Ana Lily Amirpour and was released on July 22, 2022. The music video features a murder mystery theme, where Aguilera's character is seated at a table at a birthday party with guests that may want to kill her that might. The video ends with Aguilera being poisoned by the birthday cake.


Composition


"Suéltame" is described as "a sultry tango-meets-urban collab where the lady takes matters into her own hands by Billboard.[1] It also has bossa nova, reggaeton and trap influences. The song lasts for a duration of two minutes and fifty-three seconds.[2] Lyrically, is about an exciting date in a nightclub, flirting, and mutual observance of each other's brakes and barriers in sex.[3] It is written in the key of F Minor, with a moderately fast tempo of 138 beats per minute.[4]


Release


The release of the single was postponed for a few days due to the Uvalde school shooting.[5] "Suéltame" premiered on May 30, 2022, and was released commercially for digital download and on streaming platforms worldwide at the same time.[6]


Critical reception


Townsquare Media deemed "Suéltame" "the song of Summer 2022".[7] L'Opinionista opined that it was one of the best songs of July 2022, placing it at number nine on its top twenty list, and calling it "very sensual".[8] Similarly, Argentinian daily newspaper Crónica labelled the single as a "sensual collaboration".[9] Writing for Prime News, Albert Nowicki praised the track for its "chill", "catchy melody" and Aguilera's soothing vocals.[10] Víctor Berzal de Miguel of Cultura Diversa considered "Suéltame" a "breath of freshness" and a "seducing, catchy mix of soft reggaetón and trap", and thought the song "kicks off the EP [La Tormenta] softly".[3]


Music video


The music video for "Suéltame" was directed by Ana Lily Amirpour and produced by Sara Greco.[11] The footage opens with a birthday cake-making process. However, someone puts a drop of snake poison in the batter. The cake is later presented in front of the pop star, who is not knowing that people around her want her to die. Those sitting around Christina are her distant relative, who "rides her coattails," the bodyguard, who "knows her weak spots," and the lawyer, who is "getting greedy" among others. Then Tini appears as Christinas's undercover, sensing that something bad is about to happen. The video ends with Tini getting bite of strawberry as hinting of Christina getting bite of the poisonous cake and ends choked up.[12]


Live performances


Aguilera performed "Suéltame" live for the first time at the 2022 Mallorca Live Festival, along with other songs from Aguilera. It was the first show in Aguilera's EU/UK Summer Series promotional tour for the album.[13][14]
