    "Hot Mama" is a song written by Tom Shapiro and Casey Beathard, and recorded by American country music singer Trace Adkins. It was released in September 2003 as the lead single from his album Comin' On Strong. The song peaked at number 5 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks (now Hot Country Songs) chart, giving Adkins his seventh Top 10 single on that chart. It also peaked at number 51 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 chart.

    Content

    In "Hot Mama," the male narrator addresses his lover, telling her that he enjoys her body the way that it is.

    The song can be heard in the King of the Hill episode, "The Redneck on Rainey Street", in which Adkins voices the character Elvin Mackelston.

    Critical reception

    Deborah Evans Price, of Billboard magazine reviewed the song favorably, calling a "thumpin' ode to appreciation of one's good ole gal, particularly when sleeping kids provide opportunity." She goes on to say that Adkins "wraps his muscular baritone around a bold production and a lyric heavy on domestic-life testosterone." William Ruhlmann of Allmusic gave the song a favorable review, saying that it "has a frisky appeal and, with its erotically charged tag line, 'You wanna?' a novelty quality[.]"

    Hot Mama (TV series)

    Hot Mama is the 10th and final installment of SRO Cinemaserye it will be led by veteran Kapuso actress Eugene Domingo and Wendell Ramos.

    Overview

    Eugene plays the role of Dr. Lola Cardenas, an alluring psychiatrist/sex therapist popularly known as "Hot Mama." She hosts a late night radio program kung saan nagbibigay siya ng advice to callers who ask questions, about love and intimacy.

    Lola displays a very liberal and open-minded personality as Hot Mama but unknown to many, isa pala siyang old maid who leads a simple and carefree life. Despite being an expert sex therapist, malamig ang sex life ni Lola and worse, she hasn't found her Mr. Right yet.

    Single, lonely and desperate for love, she soon finds herself obsessed with Bruce (Victor Aliwalas), ang kanyang executive producer/friend. Pero, in love na ito sa kanyang cousin/manager Mari (Maureen Larrazabal).

    Devastated for being loveless, Hot Mama focuses her attention on her career at sa isang social networking website. Here she meets Randy (Wendell Ramos), one of her avid fans from Cebu.
