According to writer Ely Buendia's Esquire article in 2012, he based the song on his cousin who had dated actress Shirley Tesoro, who had appeared in bomba films in the late 1980s. Its original title was "Tiktik" and its chorus was inspired by the Marvin Gaye song "Sexual Healing", released in 1982. [1]
