Singamo (part. Yomel El Meloso)

Tokischa's 'Singamo (feat. Yomel El Meloso)' is a song that delves into the gritty and raw aspects of street life, using a direct and unapologetic approach to describe the environment the artists come from. The repetitive chorus 'Aquí singamo', which translates to 'Here we f***,' sets a tone of defiance and a no-holds-barred attitude towards life in the 'bajo mundo' or underworld. The lyrics paint a picture of a community that is unashamed of its ways, engaging in activities like smoking ('botando humo'), hustling ('joseando'), and being on the lookout ('calibrando').

The verses provide a deeper look into the lifestyle and characters that inhabit this world. References to drinking rum, casual sexual encounters, and a sense of pride in their notoriety are prevalent. The artists adopt alter egos, such as 'el vagabundo' and 'papi Jordan,' to emphasize their street credibility and dominance. The song also touches on the darker sides of this life, including violence and drug use, with lines like 'Un mono me mangó singando y le di una milonga' suggesting a confrontation during a sexual encounter and the need to hide marijuana from the authorities.

Despite the harsh realities depicted, there is a sense of community and identity that comes through in the song. The artists describe a world where people are bonded by their shared experiences, even if those experiences involve crime or other frowned-upon activities. The song is a raw expression of life on the streets, where survival and reputation are paramount, and where the rules of the outside world don't always apply.
