Composition
"La Original" is an electropop and house song.[6][1] 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]
