"Me Odio" ("I Hate Myself") is a song recorded by the Cuban-American singer Gloria Estefan for her fourth Spanish-language and eleventh studio album, 90 Millas. The song was written by Gloria Estefan and her husband, Emilio Estefan Jr. and Gaitanes (Alberto y Ricardo Gaitan), while production was credited to Estefan Jr. and Gaitanes. The single was released digitally worldwide by SonyBMG on November 2, 2007, as the second and first promotional-only single from 90 Millas.
As its predecessor, the song is a danzón that mixes a powerful guitar and trumpet introduction with a salsa background driven by a piano throughout the song. The lyrics make reference to a person "who hates itself for being so in love with someone", but some music critics suggested it may not refer to a person specifically, but to a place.[1] Estefan confirmed in her documentary, 90 Millas, that it is one of her favorite songs from the album.
Although a music video was filmed and the song received remix treatment, including a duet featuring the rapper Fat Joe, the song could not match the success of "No Llores", and was only released to promote the album on the US on Spanish-language radio-stations.
