Novatada can mean a 'rookie mistake' or 'hazing'. It's an interesting word because it implies a lack of experience leading to a significant error or a prank played on a newcomer.
In the context of
Eden Muñoz's "Qué Loco El Plebe" tells a dramatic story of a young man's final moments after a violent encounter. The song opens by describing the "plebe" [young man] as "qué loco" [how crazy] for losing his life over something seemingly minor: not having his super [gun] ready. It seems he was caught off guard, perhaps with just a small bag, in a situation that escalated quickly. He's badly wounded but manages to return fire, evening the score.
As he lies there, waiting for help, he reflects on his life and family. He asks for a corrido [a narrative ballad, often about heroes or outlaws] of his father, revealing a tragic parallel: they both died in the same way, "por la espalda y sin avisar" [from behind and without warning]. Despite his past, he finds comfort in knowing he was always good to his loved ones. In his last defiant wish, he asks to be buried with his truck, a final statement that "la tierra que no se tragó cualquier cosa" [the earth didn't swallow just anything].
