"Me Traicionaste" is a song recorded by Spanish singerRosalía and Peruvian singer-songwriterA. Chal. It was released on April 26, 2019, throughColumbia Records simultaneously with theGame of Thrones companion soundtrack,For the Throne: Music Inspired by the HBO Series.
On April 9, 2019, it was announced that the iconicHBO showGame of Thrones would have its own companion soundtrack.[1] The soundtrack was set to be released on April 26, 2019, two weeks later thanthe show's eighth season premiere.[2][3]
Ryan Dombal ofPitchfork praised the track and Rosalía's performance in an otherwise highly negative review of its parent album, stating that it "offers a dark, piercing sensuality" and "comes close to matching the shadowyGame of Thrones mood millions have fallen for," but was highly critical of A. Chal's "pointless" verse.[4] Danny Schwartz ofHighsnobiety expressed a similar sentiment, writing that the Peruvian rapper spoiled the lead artist's "exquisiteflamenco".[5] Stefanie Fernández, writing forNPR, called the track a "soundtrack standout" due to its production and "uncanny relevance toArya Stark and her kill list",[6] whileBillboard's Judy Cantor-Navas described it as "darkly intriguing."[7]GQ placed the song on its weekly best songs list, with Colin Groundwater calling it a "solid slow burner that continues the Spanish pop star's winning streak."[8]
