Shakira did not hold back in her new single "BZRP Music Session #53."
The Colombian singer collaborated with Argentine producer Bizarrap on the new tune that dropped Thursday.
Shakira let loose on ex-boyfriend Gerard Piqué through lyrics while also referencing his current girlfriend Clara Chia Marti.
"I'm too good for you, and that's why you're with someone just like you."
Possibly the most impressive aspect of the song, however, is the record it broke in its first 24 hours.
According to Pop Base, Shakira's new single had the biggest debut by any Latin song in YouTube history, with over 50 million views in its first day.

Viewers took to Twitter to share their love for La Reina—The Queen—and her new tune.
Shakifans praised the "Queen of Latin Music" for her longevity in the industry, celebrating the Grammy winner is still breaking records three decades into her career.

Shakira and Piqué met on the set of the singer's "Waka Waka (This Time for Africa)" music video and began dating in 2010.
The couple split over the summer. They have two sons together—Milan, 9 and Sasha, 7.
Of Piqué's new relationship with now 23-year-old Marti, Shakira sang:
"I wish you luck with my supposed replacement."
"I don't even know what happened to you."
"I'm worth two of 22 [year old]."
"You traded a Ferrari for a Twingo."
"You traded a Rolex for a Casio."
"You're going fast, slow down."
"Lots of time at the gym but your brain needs a little work, too."
Ouch.
Shakira repeats throughout the dance-pop track:
"I'm too good for you, and that's why you're with someone just like you."
As of January 11, the music video had been viewed 112 million times.
