Song information


"Atrévete-te-te" is based on a Colombian cumbia beat and a clarinet riff also typical of traditional music from Colombia's coast. It was especially popular in that country.


The lyrics found in the song contain Spanglish words such as "estárter" and anglicisms such as lighter and wiper are used to create rhymes, a reflection of the use of English on the island due to Puerto Rico's status as a Commonwealth in free association with the United States.[2] The song has been featured in an MTV Tres commercial.[citation needed]


It was used in a version of the song for Manuel Rosales' 2006 presidential campaign in Venezuela. Rosales' campaign motto was Atrévete.[3]



Pop culture references


The song makes several references to different pop culture themes, such as:



  • The Japanese videogame Street Fighter

  • The British rock band Coldplay

  • The American punk rock band Green Day

  • The 2003 Quentin Tarantino film, Kill Bill: Volume 1

  • The music genre, Latino punk


Agüeybaná, the last indigenous cacique in Puerto Rico's history is also mentioned, as are the cities of Bayamón and Guaynabo, Puerto Rico (this last one mentioned as to reinforce the song subject's aloofness and scorn for Latino and Puerto Rican influences, versus her liking of the rather "foreign" references mentioned above). The dancers on the song's video are Marilyn Monroe lookalikes, each dressed in blonde wig and a skimpier version of Monroe's famed The Seven Year Itch dress.
