    [QUOTE=dmoney101;652849]reggaeton never was really good. it's not about the lyrics, just the beats because everyone likes to dance it.

    Yeah I agree on that. It just feels nice to dance to reggaeton. Also partly because of how its danced, and sex is always a tasty condiment for the masses. However due to the nature of the market and the repetitive nature of the beat people get eventually tired and new things emerge to quench the thirst for the new thing. Regardless it will always be fun for me.

    yea, the beats get repetitive, but the old school straight perreo will always be my favorite.

    carnal = brother and/or friend

    firme = firm / steady

    chale = is kindo of = no / damn / oppps / when you want to say something is ugly / unpleasant / that you don't like it

    chale = is of central Mexico and basically is use to expressed disappointment, not satisfaction, but taken with disgust unexpected resignation and calmly

    "Chale" is also used to express surprise: "¡Chale! ¿Viste qué cara hizo?" (Wow! did you see his/her face?), "¡Chale! ¿Qué onda?" (Hey! What's going on?)

    cualto = cuarto = room (if I'm not wrong, Puerto Ricans tend to pronounce the R as L)

    tu no tiene cualto = you don't have room

    -Cagua: I'm not sure, but I reckon it may be short for "caguama", which is a one-litre bottle of beer (very popular in Mexico )

    -Careja: mmhhh, I've never heard this before... are u sure it's not "carajo"?? (Carajo is something like "hell", "f*ck" or "sh*t" ).

    -Rifando: "rifarsela" means to take a big risk.


    The other ones don't tell me much really; sorry... I'm mexican btw...
