Perhaps you’ve heard “CoCo,” O.T. Genasis’ street ode to cocaine, and baking soda, and the gift of possibly the first rapper to publicly admit that he stole the lyrics for his first-ever performance–in a middle school talent show–from a girl in his class.

The minute we heard the song, we knew it was only a matter of time before YouTube was filled with tracks about being in love with the toto, the mojo, sancocho, a cholo, adobo, etc., And we weren’t disappointed:
