We Translated DJ Snake, Selena Gomez, Cardi B And Ozuna's 'Taki Taki' Lyrics And They Are Explicit AF

The meaning behind Selena Gomez, Cardi B and Ozuna's collaboration is filthy...
It's finally here. After months of teasing the collaboration, DJ Snake, Selena Gomez, Cardi B and Ozuna have finally released their new single 'Taki Taki' and it's safe to say that it doesn't disappoint. Not only is it a stone-cold banger but it's also a hit in the making. Selena, Cardi and Ozuna are all shine on it and DJ Snake's production goes off. It's early days but we think that this could be Cardi's fourth US Number 1 single.
The song also sees Selena, Cardi and Ozuna all embrace their Latin heritages (the chorus and Ozuna's verse are completely in Spanish and Cardi and Selena both switch it up between Spanish and English throughout the track). It wouldn't surprise us if this song ended up being as big as 'Despacito'. That's not all though, the lyrics are explicit af and fans are desperately trying to translate them.
What does 'Taki Taki' mean?
According to Genius, "Taki Taki has no official meaning, and it is believed that it is used in the song just for better sound." However, one of the lyrics in Selena's verse is "What my taki taki wants // My taki taki gets" so it could be a synonym for "punani" which Cardi raps about. 'Taki Taki' also means "anal sex" according to Urban Dictionary so there are a lot of theories atm.
Cardi B has since taken to Instagram to clear things up.
Okay. That makes sense but the other meanings could still stand, no?
As for the other NSFW lyrics in the track, early standouts so far are Cardi rapping: "If the text ain't freaky, I don't wanna read it // And just to let you know, this punani is undefeated" and "He says he doesn't want to but he wants to eat this package" in Spanish. Selena also gets her freak on and sings: "My body already know how to play // Work it, keep it tight every day".
Unsurprisingly fans are shook. Here are just a few of the reactions.

VERSE 1: OZUNA
Taki Taki
You want a little kiss or ñaqui
Booty blows up like Nagasaki
Turn on the engines, Kawasaki
That the club is full
And the Annunaki are here
Don't slow down, the booty sticks out of your suit
She did not bring panties so the guy doesn't have to work for it
It's just that I know what she thinks she knows
She says she doesn't want to but she is spying on me (eh-eh)
The booty sticks out of your suit

VERSE 2: CARDI B
Bardi (Cardi)
I have say he wanna touch it, and tease it, and squeeze it
While my piggyback is hungry, my nigga, you need to feed it
If the text ain't freaky, I don't wanna read it
And just so let's know this kunani is undefeated, ay
I have said I really want to see me more
I said we should have a date, where? At the Lamborghini store
I'm kinda scary, hard to read, I'm like a ouija board
But I'ma boss, bitch, who you gonna leave me for?
You have no class, you bitches froze still
I'll be talkin 'cash while I'm poppin' my gold grill (uh)
I'ma hoe, rich bitch and work like I'm broke still (Cardi)
But they love me so fake, but they hate me so real (uh)
The booty sticks out of my suit
I did not wear panties so he doesn't have to work for it
It's just that I know what you think you don't know
He says he doesn't want to but he wants to eat this package
CHORUS: OZUNA
Dance as if it were the last time
And show me that little step that I do not know
A nice little kiss, baby
Taki Taki
Taki Taki, rumba
Wo-oh, oh-oh
VERSE 3: SELENA GOMEZ
DJ Snake
Careful when you come through my way
My body already know how to play
Work it, keep it tight every day
And I, I, I know you need a taste
I'm like ooh, falling in love
Give a little ooh-ooh, get it well done
Dancing in my ooh, make a girl wanna run
We keep moving 'til the sun come up
Because I am the party, I am party
Blow out your candles, have a nap
You can try but not one can stop me
What my taki taki wants, say my taki taki give, uh
CHORUS: SELENA GOMEZ & OZUNA
Dance as if it were the last time
And show me that little step that I do not know
A nice little kiss, baby
Taki Taki
Taki Taki, rumba
Wo-oh, oh-oh
