"'Frijolero'" is a song from Molotov's 2003 record 'Dance and Dense Denso'. Its lyrics comprise an exchange where characters trade racially loaded barbs at the MexicoUS border. "Frijolero" is a facetious calque of "beaner", an insulting American English term for a Mexican; the American character is described as "'pinche gringo puetero'" (roughly, "fucking gringo wanker").
The group won a Latin Grammy for the colorful rotoscoped video in the field of Best Short Form Music Video.
The song is featured in the soundtrack of Omar Rodriguez-Lopez's movie 'Los Chidos', released in 2012.
