Degenere Lyrics in English by Myke Towers, benny blanco
Degenere is a powerful slang term used as a noun in this song to mean "a wild party," "chaos," or "getting crazy." It comes from the verb degenerar, which means "to degenerate," but in this party context, it takes on a more fun and rebellious meaning.
Myke Towers sings, "Y formemo' el degenere," which translates to "And let's start the wild party" or "Let's cause some chaos." It perfectly captures the song's theme of letting loose and having an unforgettably wild night.
Puerto Rican hitmaker Myke Towers teams up with producer benny blanco to deliver an unapologetic party anthem built around moving on and cutting loose. The central philosophy is simple: "Por amor nadie se muere" ("Nobody dies of love"). Instead of staying home crying over past heartbreak, the woman in the track shakes it off because "ya las heridas no le duelen" ("the wounds don't hurt her anymore"). Towers watches her run the nightlife scene in designer Cartier or Jean Paul Gaultier sunglasses, surrounded by her own fan club, totally open to flirt with anyone since "tú tienes hombres de más, también te gustan las mujeres" ("you have plenty of men, and you like women too").
The title itself sets the tone: "formemo' el degenere" translates loosely to "let's start the wild chaos" or "let's cause a scene," leaning into Puerto Rican party slang for throwing inhibitions out the window with loud music and drinks. Towers drops great everyday lingo along the way, like "ella a mí me roncó" ("she talked tough to me" or acted like she didn't care) before she admitted "que se juqueó" (Puerto Rican slang for getting completely hooked or obsessed). It is a direct, upbeat look at packed clubs, fancy sports cars, and choosing wild fun over lingering heartbreak.
