The meaning of Bojangles is a female with a big chest, nice legs, and nice arms; taking its definition from a line by one of the Ying Yang Twins, "a Bojangles is a girl with breast, legs and wings", in turn taking the name from the fast food chain Bojangles' Famous Chicken 'n Biscuits. Pitbull also references Jay-Z's 1996 album Reasonable Doubt in the song.
