PopoZao by Kevin Federline
The pop song “PopoZao” is the first single by Kevin Federline, widely known as the husband of singer Britney Spears. Released on January 1, 2006, it is a mix between American hip-hop and Brazilian funk music. In addition to being not regarded well by many in the United States, the song was considered a joke by many Brazilian people who listened to it on the radio or on the Internet, because of Federline’s poorly done accent and bad Portuguese. It was inspired by a Brazilian song called “Funk do Popozão“.
The song has been the subject of many jokes, including a spoof on Late Night with Conan O’Brien. It is constantly made fun of on many websites and discussion forums as well.
In Brazilian Portuguese “popozão” is a slang term that means “great or big ass” (in this context referring to human buttocks). A woman with a great or big ass is, thus, a “popozuda”.
Excerpts from the lyrics of the song:
I want to see your kitty and a little bit of titty…
Girls, don’t you worry about all the dough, because a cat is coming straight out of the ‘No…
Bring that Brazil booty on the floor
Up, down, all around, work that shit to the funky sound…
Po, po, po, po, popozão, popozão
