this is a great song to have sex to. the rhythm and hitting the beat is dope.

everyone on my timeline is putting bachata and merengue music to this video its hilarious
 
Rembert Browne had a great article at Grantland about it

What your are witnessing is Yung Aubrey Bautista absolutely feeling himself, a concept that should not be met with any negative connotations. With that said, that also has very little to do with actual quality. The idea of feeling yourself does not necessarily imply that the dance moves are great. Feeling yourself is simply when you could not be any more a fan of yourself and how you look and what you are doing and, in turn, what you are giving to the world in that moment.

It’s that feeling when you start dancing, and then stumble on a move, and then really like that move. When this happens, chances are you’re going to dig into it more and more with each sidestep. Each time, a little more knee bend. A little more head nod. A little more sass. A little more attitude. A little more goddamn. These aren’t theoretical concepts, these are actual facts of life.

In this video, you’re seeing the confidence of someone who’s been going to the same bar every other weekend for three years. It’s post-posturing. It’s when you show up in sweats at 1 a.m. because you can. It’s how you dance when a public space becomes your living room. You’re beyond needing to impress strangers, because you’re not the stranger — everyone else is.

The funny thing about the Cha Cha rip-off criticism from DRAM is that it also ripped-off another song. Cha Cha is comprised of an unlicensed sample of Super Mario World. They ripped the track from the Star Road hub level and didn't ask or compensate Nintendo, and they eventually had to rerelease the song with an entirely new beat. So DRAM needs to shut that hypocritical shit up.



Seems like a lot of songs are taking from Latin culture. Cha Cha is full of that bullshit, especially the video with the sombreros and floating tacos. I'd like to see more Latino rappers blow up

Its valid criticism. Its like jlo slightly tweaking that beatnuts track and just putting it out there cause her audience is massive and she can handle the repurcussions.
 
Loving the song, not so much the video.

I felt like there could've been SO much more potential out of it.

I've been liking Bearface's remix too, especially with the interlaced quotes from Perks of Being a Wallflower, but the remix would've been so much better with Drake's vocals.

Not bad but Erykah did it better.

Other than the chorus being different just to be different, I like it.

I'd love it even more without the long interlude.

First 40 seconds in I was thinking it was too slow, but by the end it was just right, I liked it.

And since people were posting remixes, I'll post this cover which was out for some time too, well, can't even call it a cover, more like a takeover: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=77MenaZJrNw

My thoughts exactly the first time I heard it.

Yeah, this is a good one. I think I saw someone on my Twitter feed post this, but didn't get around to listening to it.
