Aserejé
September 3, 2008Back in high school, I had a friend (he’s still a friend, although we don’t see each other very often) who was quite intelligent - as in, cum laude university. This is one of those people who are always right, no matter the subject, no matter the state of intoxication.
Except for this one time, like 6 years ago, where I totally omgPWNIES! him.
Him: “Damn, normally I don’t have many issues with Spanish - I usually understand most of it - but this Aserejé song, I don’t have a clue what they’re singing about…!”
The frustration was clear.
Me: “Uhm, dude…”
Him: “Yes?”
Me: “…that isn’t Spanish.”
Music, Social Life | 
Never knew that! Now I finally understand why I didn’t understand the song at all…

See Rapper’s Delight by the Sugarhill Gang, from 1979.
That’s where the lyrics come from.
