The Real Meaning Behind Camila Cabello's 'Oh Na Na' Ft. Myke Towers & Tainy

Publish date: 2024-05-19

For her latest single, "Oh Na Na," Camila Cabello joined forces with two Puerto Ricans artists — rapper Myke Towers and producer Tainy. The uptempo song sees Towers rapping in Spanish, with Cabello switching between Spanish and English.

In her verse, for example, Cabello sings about feeling confident and risqué, thanks to some liquid courage. "Feelin' kinda mighty, ya, ya, ya / Go ahead and bite me, rah, rah, rah," she sings on the track. "Rum and cola to take you over, na, na, na / Tell me that you want this / La, la, la." Later on in the song, the former Fifth Harmony member dabbles into Spanish rap.

"Quédate cerquita como enero de febrero / Yo te quiero pegadito, dale bésame bonito," Cabello rhymes. This specific line translates to "Stay close like January to February / I want you pressed up against me, go ahead kiss me," per Genius. Clearly, she is all into the guy she is singing about. Meanwhile, Towers raps that music is a universal language ("La música e' un lenguaje universal"), and reminisces about meeting the girl in question on a hot New York summer. "Recuerdo la vez que te conocí fue en un verano en Nueva York." 

Not long after "Oh Na Na" dropped on October 29, fans reacted to the song on social media — and they're obsessed with it.
