A diss track made to attack or mock another artist, very common in reggaeton and hip-hop. It's the musical version of a public fight — beats, bars, and no mercy.
To do something spectacular, to shine brilliantly and knock it out of the park leaving everyone impressed. When someone 'la rompió,' their performance was so good there aren't enough words to describe it.
A person who watches over parked cars on the street in exchange for tips. They're a fixture of Latin American city life — you pay them a small fee and hope your car is still there when you come back.
Something difficult or complicated, or a person who is cunning, mischievous, and hard to deal with. In Mexico it works both ways: "está canijo" means a situation is tough, while calling someone "canijo" means they're a sneaky little troublemaker. It can also describe someone who's physically scrawny.
A despicable person, a lowlife, or someone with a terrible reputation. Calling someone a lacra means they're the scum of society — a criminal, a deadbeat, or just an absolutely awful human being.
