"Otra Cosa" is a reggaeton, dancehall, and moombahton song with a length of three minutes and twenty-eight seconds.[2][5] The lyrics are about lovesickness.[2] Natti Natasha stated that the story "is a bit complicated for women, because I know that both men and women will understand because they are things that happen on a daily basis, but this time we had the opportunity to express it in a song."[2][4] She added that "not always what seems to be good and elegant is good for love" and described the song as about "toxic love."[6][5] Daddy Yankee expressed that "I think that when you find the balance between man and woman in a subject, I think that everyone can identify. This time I have to be, as always in love, the bad guy."[2]
