Velito El Bufón has stirred the online buzz once again with a sneak peek of his upcoming track, "El Punto," shared on Instagram alongside his eldest son. Fans quickly concluded it to be yet another homage to Thalía.
The teaser has rapidly become one of the most talked-about previews from the Cuban artist known for his distinctive style.
The snippet exudes a romantic, possessive vibe. Among the lines sparking the most conversation was: "I'm the first in your life and the last man," which was heavily quoted by users in the comments.
Public reaction was swift and decisive. The most liked comment on the post read, "Thalía Remix Number 38." Further comments included, "Okay, but she'll always be the muse for his music," and "Man, you're still hung up on Thalía."
The inclusion of Velito's son in the video was seen by many followers as an additional hint. One user noted, "His son's presence confirms who the song is about." Others were more straightforward: "The muse will always be Thalía," and "This song has a name, and it's Thalía."
Despite these assumptions, Velito himself has not confirmed any of these theories as he refrains from mentioning his ex in the teaser. Nevertheless, fans argue that the pattern is unmistakable.
This new release fits into a series of tracks that followers have been closely monitoring. Since Velito and Thalía announced their breakup on February 20—just eleven days after the birth of their second child, Thiago—the singer has released several songs that fans directly associate with their separation.
The first was "Cuidámela," featuring Dany Ome and Kevincito El 13, with lyrics like, "I know I hurt her swimming with other fish," and "Bro, take care of her... and give her more than I did." This was followed by the teaser of "Te echo de menos," released on April 14, coinciding with Thalía's 21st birthday, earning Velito the nickname "Cuba's Shakiro" on social media.
The contrast with his current life hasn't gone unnoticed. On April 13, Velito made his new relationship with flight attendant Paula Martínez official, even as fans continue to believe his music is aimed at his ex. "It must be tough for Velito's current woman to see all his songs dedicated to his 'ex' WOMAN," one user commented. Another summed up the general sentiment with irony: "With all due respect to his new partner, she's got to have an open mind."
Thalía, meanwhile, responded publicly in April with a viral video declaring, "I am a single woman, and my kids aren't looking for a dad."
A fan aptly captured the sentiment of many in the comments: "I never got over Pa Thalía, then you dropped Cuidámela, Te echo de menos, and now this... with you, there's no love that can be overcome."
