Coronando literally means "crowning," but in urban Spanish slang, it signifies "succeeding," "making money," or "doing well" in life or business. It implies achieving success and recognition.
In the song, Myke Towers sings, "Yo estaba coronando desde que era menor" (I was succeeding/making money since I was a minor). This word offers a glimpse into the artist's background and ambition, making it an engaging and culturally relevant term for learners.
"LALA" by Puerto Rican rapper Myke Towers is built on pure momentum and lust. The track moves straight from the dance floor to behind closed doors. Towers tells us right away that he fell hard the second he laid eyes on his crush: "Me enchulé la primera vez que la vi" ("I got hooked the first time I saw her"). In Puerto Rico, enchularse is rich slang for catching feelings fast or obsessing over someone. From there, the energy turns totally physical. He notices her red lipstick as she licks her lips, takes her riding through the neighborhood on a Kymco (a popular scooter brand), and loses all track of restraint when she tells him to stop overthinking: "no lo pienses mucho y dámelo" ("don't think about it too much and give it to me").
What makes the song fun is its cheeky, breathless pace. Towers drops in basketball star Carmelo Anthony ("Yo tu Carmelo") as a playful boast before letting his sentences trail off entirely during the outro. Instead of finishing his dirty thoughts, he just leaves blank spaces right where the hypnotic "la-la" chant takes over. The lyrics are blunt, confident, and full of reckless chemistry, from drinking five glasses of red wine to keeping the balcony wide open while the neighbors watch.
