Empowerment and Sensuality in 'Make It Hot'
Major Lazer's 'Make It Hot (feat. Anitta)' is a vibrant and energetic track that celebrates confidence, sensuality, and self-empowerment. The song's lyrics, delivered with a mix of Spanish and English, emphasize the allure and irresistible charm of Anitta, who is portrayed as a powerful and confident woman. The repeated phrases 'siempre hot, siempre picante' (always hot, always spicy) and 'si te twerkeo, yo no creo que aguantes' (if I twerk for you, I don't think you can handle it) highlight her self-assuredness and the impact she has on those around her.
Anitta's references to her sensuality and her comparison to 'Jenny from the block' (a nod to Jennifer Lopez) further underscore her pride in her roots and her ability to captivate and command attention. The lyrics 'todos se mueren por probar de mi veneno' (everyone is dying to taste my poison) and 'lo que quiero es mío aunque sea ajeno' (what I want is mine even if it belongs to someone else) suggest a sense of ownership and determination, reinforcing the theme of empowerment.
The song also touches on the global appeal of Anitta's persona, with mentions of Aruba and Ibiza, indicating her widespread influence and the universal nature of her charm. The infectious beats and catchy chorus, combined with Anitta's confident delivery, make 'Make It Hot' a celebration of self-confidence, sensuality, and the power of owning one's identity.
