Ruletear is a slang term derived from the English word "to rule" or "to roll", but in this context, it means "to cruise around" or "to drive around aimlessly, often for pleasure or to show off". It's a word commonly used in certain urban or subculture contexts, especially in relation to cars.
In the song, it's used in the line "Lowrider va a ruletear al estilo de antes" (The Lowrider is going to cruise around in the old style), perfectly capturing the essence of the lowrider culture and the act of driving around to be seen and enjoy the ride.
“Low” by Mexican artist Natanael Cano is a turbo-charged shout-out to lowrider life and the grind that fuels it. Imagine glossy Impalas scraping the pavement, rims spinning while corridos tumbados boom from the speakers. Cano cruises through California with a pistol tucked in his belt, flaunting designer kicks and el drip más perro as proof that the streets he once used as shortcuts now lead straight to victory. Flirty texts ping his phone, smoke curls from the tires, and every corner turns into a catwalk for cars, confidence, and pure swagger.
Beneath the chrome and bravado sits a clear message: relentless work and pride in one’s roots can flip struggle into triumph. Cano salutes his Mexican heritage and his crew, reminding listeners that even when you’re “bien volao,” success comes from staying alert, hustling hard, and never letting fear steer the wheel. “Low” is a rolling celebration of leveling up—bass thumping, hydraulics pumping, and the sun rising on a life upgraded through grit and style.
