ORIGIN OF Alofoke
When talking about the lexicon or “slang” used in the reggaeton and trap genre, the possibilities of getting deformations of English words are many. And the fact is that the wide vocabulary used in the genre is reinvented and takes on its own identity.
This is the case of the word “Alofoke” is used in the slang of this genre -almost always by Dominicans- to refer to an action that is taken lightly and without thinking much about the reprisals that such action may have.
This term arose in one of those attempts to Spanishize the word “Fucker” ending in “a lo fucker”, a bit like “a lo loco”.
However, it is known as Alofoke, Esmerlin Santiago Matias, a famous producer and manager of important artists of the trap and reggaeton genre, born in 1984 in the Capotillo neighborhood of the Dominican Republic and who began his career as a rap singer, back in the 2000s.
