What does “Tití Me Preguntó” by Bad Bunny mean? The song title’s name translates to “Auntie asked me a question.” In the dembow track, Bad Bunny explains a situation where he’s asked by his aunt if he has a lot of girlfriends and starts listing off names of various women in his life and what he loves to do with them. “I really like the Gabriela’s / The Patricia’s, the Nicole’s, the Sofía’s / My first girlfriend in kindergarten, María / And my first love’s name was Thalia.” he sings in the first verse.
In an interview with GQ he explains his global audience and the impact they have on his songwriting process. “I never made a song thinking, ‘Man, this is for the world. This is to capture the gringo audience.’ Never,” Bad Bunny said “On the contrary, I make songs as if only Puerto Ricans were going to listen to them. I still think I’m there making music, and it’s for Puerto Ricans. I forget the entire world listens to me.”
The Reggaeton artist performed the song at the 2022 MTV Video Music Awards where he made history by kissing a male dancer on stage and won VMA Artist of the Year. “From my heart, I don’t have words to describe what I feel and the pride of receiving this at the Yankee Stadium,” he said while accepting the award in Spanish. “I always knew that I could become a huge artist without changing my culture, my slang, and my language. I am Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, from Puerto Rico to the world.”

[Intro: Bad Bunny]
Hey
[Chorus: Bad Bunny]
Hey, auntie asked me if I have a lot of girlfriends, a lot of girlfriends
Today I have one, tomorrow I’ll have another, hey, but there’s no wedding
Auntie asked me if I have a lot of girlfriends, heh, a lot of girlfriends
Today I have one, tomorrow I’ll have another
[Refrain: Bad Bunny]
I’m gonna take them all to the VIP, the VIP, hey
Say hello to auntie
Let’s take a selfie, say “cheese,” hey
Let the ones I already fucked smile
In a VIP, a VIP, hey
Say hello to auntie
Let’s take a selfie, say “cheese”
Let those who have already forgotten about me smile
[Verse 1: Bad Bunny]
I really like the Gabriela’s
The Patricia’s, the Nicole’s, the Sofía’s
My first girlfriend in kindergarten, María
And my first love’s name was Thalia
I’ve got a Colombian who writes me every day
And a Mexican I didn’t even know about
Another one in San Antonio that still loves me
And the ones from PR that are all mine
A Dominican who is a fresh hottie
Fresh, fresh hottie
The one from Barcelona that came by plane
And says that my dick is fire
I let them play with my heart
I’d like to move in with all of them to a mansion
The day I get married I’ll send them an invitation
Boy, stop that, hey
[Chorus: Bad Bunny]
Hey, auntie asked me if I have a lot of girlfriends, a lot of girlfriends
Today I have one, tomorrow I’ll have another, hey, but there’s no wedding
Auntie asked me if I have a lot of girlfriends, hey, hey, a lot of girlfriends
Today I have one, tomorrow I’ll have another (Tomorrow I’ll have another; ther)
[Post-Chorus: Bad Bunny & Kiko El Crazy]
Auntie asked me
Auntie asked me (So good)
Auntie asked me
Auntie asked me (But come here, boy, why do you want so many girlfriends?)
[Refrain: Bad Bunny]
I’m gonna take them all to the VIP, the VIP, hey
Say hello to auntie
Let’s take a selfie, say “cheese,” hey
Let the ones I already fucked smile
In a VIP, a VIP, hey
Say hello to auntie
Let’s take a selfie, say “cheese”
Let those who have already forgotten about me smile
[Interlude]
Hey, boy, the disgraceful devil
Let go of that bad life you have on the streets
Find a serious woman for yourself
Boy, the devil, damn
[Bridge: Bad Bunny]
I’d like to fall in love
But I can’t, but I can’t, eh, eh
I’d like to fall in love
But I can’t, but I can’t
[Verse 2: Bad Bunny]
Sorry, I don’t trust, I don’t trust
Nah, I don’t even trust myself
If you want to, stay today since it’s cold
And leave tomorrow, nah
Many want my baby gravy
They want to have my firstborn, hey
And take the credit
I’m bored already, today I want a brand new ass, heh
A new one, a new one, a new one, a new one, a new one (Hey)
Listen to your friend, she’s right
I’m gonna break your heart, break your heart
Hey, don’t fall in love with me (No, no)
Don’t fall in love with me (No, no), hey
Sorry, it’s how I am (How I am, how I am), hey
I don’t know why I’m like this (Hey)
Listen to your friend, she’s right
I’m gonna break your heart, break your heart (Hey, hey)
Don’t fall in love with me (No)
Don’t fall in love with me (No), no
Sorry, it’s how I am
I don’t wanna be like that no more, no

Me gustan mucho las Gabriela

Tengo una colombiana que mе escribe to’ los día’
Y una mexicana quе ni yo sabía
Otra en San Antonio que me quiere todavía
Y las de PR que todita’ son mía’
Una dominicana que es uva bombón
Uva, uva bombón
La de Barcelona que vino en avión
Y dice que mi bicho está cabrón
Yo dejo que jueguen con mi corazón
Quisiera mudarme con toda’ pa’ una mansión
El día que me case te envío la invitación
Muchacho, deja eso, ey
