about

Fresh off of being the featured musical performer on RevryTV’s House of Pride this June, Frankie Simone's new single "sal y pimienta" is the embodiment of joy. Representing play and personal freedom, “sal y pimienta” is the perfect summer bop. Combining lyrics in both Spanish and English, Frankie explores their Puerto Rican heritage and upbringing, remembering the incredible food they grew up with along with the ever present salsa dancing and Caribbean sounds of their childhood. This song is for busting out in the kitchen while cooking, for turning up in the car with the windows down and wind in your hair, and for those hot summer nights at the beach with all of your friends.

lyrics

sal y pimienta, baila
sal y pimienta, baila

shake it shake it up like salt and pepper (pepper)

makin fire like this bop bout a salty spot
yeah my glass half full, I like to live pricey
got em on their toes (ayyeee) huh keep it real spicy

shake it up like salt and pepper (pepper)
and this beat will last forever (ever)
shake it up shake it up (ahhh)

arroz con gandules is some crispy chicken
easy bake got that tiny little sauce and oven
scramble it up, like my favorite season
Adobo es king, got us feelin real fun

wind me up like woodie blast me off to space next
