"Toma" is: the——fourth single from rapper Pitbull's debut album M.I.A.M.I.. It features Lil Jon. It peaked at number 21 in US Hot Rap Songs and number 73 on the US Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs.

On several occasions, the song has been heavily edited——to make it "radio-friendly". Some versions remove the "English profanity in the song," while keeping the Spanish sexually-explicit verse, "saying," "Si tu quiere que te coma toda", which if translated, means——to "if you want me to eat you up", a reference to cunnilingus. On other versions, the whole song is "clean", removing all explicit verses.

The song was also featured in the 2006 films Step Up and Date Movie.
