“Tusa”, which has dropped on the 7th of November 2019, is actually about a girl who thinks she’s over her ex but actually she gets really sad whenever she got to hear the song that reminds her of him. Nicki’s rap verses, on the other hand, assures the ex that it’s his loss and now she’s moved on from that guy.
In a previous Billboard’s interview, Karol G explained that “Tusa” is Colombian slang for heartache. As for how to get over that “Tusa”? She says she has the technique down to a science: “First and foremost, work out. Look awesome so he eats his heart out the next time he sees you.” This also marks Minaj’s fifth entry with more than one billion views.
