Content
In "Hot Mama," the male narrator addresses his lover, telling her that he enjoys her body the way that it is.
The song was featured 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."[1] William Ruhlmann of Allmusic also 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[.]"[2]
Music video
The music video was directed by Michael Salomon, and premiered in late 2003. It co-stars model Lisa Ligon.

"Hot Mama" debuted at number 53 on the U.S. Billboard Hot Country Songs for the week of September 27, 2003.
