Loved this one from the word go. It had that great funky Meters groove.
I've always loved the Meters' drummer (Modeliste)
The guitar work on Hey Negrita is actually great (and I don't get the Ron Wood hate) but each time I hear Jagger's voice on this song I want to smash every tooth in his head, or kick him in the eye. And the lyrics are awful.
OMG

Flash of gold in your ears, child, flash of gold in your eyes
Saw the gleam in your mouth, saw the steel in your thighs
Bate las caderas, do it up now

One last dollar, she say, I got my pride
I'm gonna cut you balls, boy, I'm gonna tan your hide
Ooh, hey negrita, hey now, what’s the matter boy

Shake it up, shake it up, shake it up now

Do it up right now…

Saw the gleam in your mouth, saw the steel in your thighs. I'm hearing something a lot more sexual. Could be my perverted mind.

An absolute gem of a song and one of their most funkiest if not the most. Fantastic guitar work, great bridge, and a wonderful loping beat that sounds like it's gonna fall apart!

To me that's Ronnie's first great contribution to a Stones cut. And of course the Wyman/Watts rhythm section is incredible.

Does anybody understand what he’s singing at 1.53? ”Prettybaby/thing”?

Not everything is always meant to be understood... maybe Mick just made up some words that sounded Spanish? It's all part of the RnR spirit of the time.
Here's an Italian superstar who made a whole song in the 70s that just sounded English: youtube.com - good luck translating it!
