Boomshakalaka is a turbo-charged, globe-spanning party anthem where Belgian DJ duo Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike team up with Afro Bros, Sebastián Yatra, Camilo, and Emilia to ignite the dance floor. The made-up word "boomshakalaka" is the sound of the bass exploding in your chest, a playful chant that urges everyone to move. Through flirty eye contact, teasing metaphors ("eat the caramel"), and constant calls to raise your hands, the singers celebrate instant chemistry and the irresistible pull of the rhythm. Heads and feet obey the beat "otra vez" (again and again), proving that good music needs no translation.
Under the flashing lights, the lyrics invite listeners to forget every rule until shoe soles melt and the night burns bright. Each artist sprinkles in cultural flavor—Camilo’s Colombian swagger, Emilia’s shout-out to Buenos Aires, Yatra’s smooth charm—creating a 100-percent-fun cocktail of Spanish and English. At its core, the song is a joyful reminder that when the right track drops, bodies move like "fish in water" and worries disappear in a burst of boomshakalaka energy.
