Interesting facts and trivia about Taki Taki. By Songfacts®.

This track features DJ Snake's Latin beats over which Cardi B, Ozuna and Selena Gomez sing a mixture of Spanish and English. Ozuna kicks off the song with a smooth verse about a wild night in the club in which he comes on to the two female singers. Cardi B and Selena Gomez then sing the next two verses where they tease Ozuna's attempts at seduction and play hard to get.

According to Genius, "Taki Taki" is neither an actual Spanish or an English word and is just an onomatopoeia used for a "better sound." However, according to Urban Dictionary, "Taki Taki" means "The illness to dance and/or sing."

In a video interview for Billboard, DJ Snake said he made the song with Ozuna to begin with, as he "wanted to make a reggaeton club-like hit." After Ozuna "crushed it," Snake decided he wanted a feminine touch on the record. Ozuna was pleasantly surprised when he found out that artists of Cardi and Gomez's caliber had been added to the track, "I was like, wow, wow," he said.
