Mi Trokita Cumbia

The song 'Mi Trokita Cumbia' by Obzesion is a playful and humorous narrative centered around the artist's affection for his old truck ('troka vieja') and the adventures that come with it. The lyrics, delivered in a mix of Spanish and English, depict the truck as a character in its own right, affectionately named 'la charola'. Despite its worn-out appearance, the truck is portrayed as a reliable companion that attracts attention, especially from women ('hoes se suben solas'), when it arrives at dance events. The song uses colloquial language and cultural references to create a lighthearted and relatable story for many in the Latino community, particularly those who take pride in their vehicles regardless of their age or condition.

The chorus, with its catchy 'rum, y rum, y rum' hook, emphasizes the truck's resilience ('no se raja mi troquita'), as the singer heads to Houston to meet a girl ('ver una nalguita'). The truck, despite leaking oil ('tirando aceite') and passing through checkpoints ('pasando la garita'), is a source of pride and joy for the singer. The song also touches on themes of perception and value, as the singer sees potential and beauty ('yo veo una mamalona') in what others might dismiss as junk ('si ustedes ven un yonke').

Obzesion's 'Mi Trokita Cumbia' is a celebration of culture, resilience, and the simple pleasures of life, like driving an old truck and enjoying a beer ('pistiando una corona'). The song's upbeat tempo and cumbia rhythm make it a danceable track, while its lyrics offer a humorous take on the pride many people feel for their humble yet cherished possessions. It's a testament to finding joy in the imperfect and making the most of what one has.
