Loco Contigo Lyrics in English by DJ Snake, J Balvin, Tyga
Ataduras literally translates to 'ties' or 'bindings' and comes from the verb atar (to tie).
In the lyrics, the singer tells his love interest "Tú no tienes ataduras", which metaphorically means she has no strings attached and isn't tied down to anyone. It is a highly expressive word used to describe total freedom and independence, making it a great addition to your Spanish vocabulary.
French producer DJ Snake teams up with J Balvin and Tyga for a track that is completely obsessed with one person. The main hook sets the mood right away: "Tú me tienes loco, loco contigo / Yo trato y trato, pero baby, no te olvido" ("You have me crazy, crazy about you / I try and try, but baby, I don't forget you"). J Balvin brings plenty of cheeky humor to his verses. He jokes about skimpy party fashion with "Tu diseñador no quiso gastar en la tela" ("Your designer didn't want to spend on fabric") and drops a funny, down-to-home line comparing the way she moves to comfort food: "Tú lo bates como la avena de abuela" ("You stir it like grandma's oatmeal"). Later, he nods to Latin pop culture royalty by telling her to move her hips like the late queen of Tejano music, Selena Quintanilla ("mueve la cadera como lo hacía Selena").
When Tyga steps in, the bilingual party keeps rolling past 4:00 AM with cash-flashing hip-hop swagger. He boasts about buying matching diamond watches ("iced out watch") for both his crush and her best friend, playfully calling his ex an "antique" while hyping up his new flame as an "art piece." From Balvin singing that this woman is his cure whenever desire hits ("Eres mi antídoto cuando tengo ganas") to Tyga playing on words with salsa music and spicy food ("You like salsa I'm saucy / Caliente, muy caliente"), the whole track is a bold, upbeat confession that neither artist can walk away from this dance floor romance.
