The story behind
When addressing What am I going to do with myself, we encounter a piece that, although part of an album that did not achieve great notoriety at the time, demonstrates Ricardo Arjona's ability to make his compositions transcend. What is interesting is that the melodies of this album, including this track, found a new life and were reissued in other later works by the singer-songwriter. Even, different versions of songs like Consumer Skin, Urban Gypsy, and the one we are discussing, What am I going to do with myself, appeared in compilations alongside other artists, showing the versatility of these creations.
Ricardo Arjona Morales, born in Jocotenango, Guatemala, in 1964, has built a notable career since his beginnings. Before dedicating himself entirely to music, he had a stint as a basketball player and also worked as a teacher. His discography, which by 2011 totaled thirteen studio albums, one live album, nine compilations, and forty-three singles, reveals a constant production. The impact of his work is reflected in the popularity charts; four of his albums reached the top of the Billboard Top Latin Albums in the United States, and ten did the same in Argentina. Furthermore, four of his works managed to enter the Billboard 200. As for singles, four reached the number one spot on the Billboard Top Latin Songs, and seven obtained a prominent place. His lyrical style is particular, addressing a wide range of themes, from love to social issues such as racism, immigration, religion, and violence, which has earned him significant recognition in Latin America.
