“Mamacita” by Jason Derulo (ft. Farruko)

“Mamacita” is a Latin American word which basically translates to ‘sexy lady’. And in keeping true to the term’s origin, Jason Derulo has teamed up with Puerto Rican artist Farruko to present a song primarily in Spanish, though a good portion of it is also sung in English. Derulo handles all of the English sections, while he also drops some Spanish alongside his collaborator.

You can view the lyrics, alternate interprations and sheet music for Farruko's Mamacita at Lyrics.org.

This is one of those songs where if you understand the title then you pretty much understand its contents. It features the homeys feening on a carnal level for a certain lady they are interacting with. What impresses them the most about this woman is her body. And the reason they are referring to her as “mamacita” is apparently because she is from Chile, a South American country whose official language is Spanish. And what they are imploring her to do, even more than anything is to whine, as in dance in a suggestive manner.

So this song fits the trend Spanglish (Spanish and English) songs which have been rising in popularity in recent years. And its specific purpose, besides being a dance song, is to express appreciation for South (i.e. Latin) American women.
