"I Did It, Mama!" is a song recorded by Romanian singer-songwriter Alexandra Stan for her eponymous and second studio album, Alesta (2016). Released on 27 November 2015 through Global Records as a single, the track was produced by Play & Win members Sebastian Barac and Marcel Botezan, and David Ciente. The writing process was handled by the latter three in collaboration with Stan, Eric Turner and Julimar Santos Oliveira Neponuceno. An europop, reggaeton, eurodance and dance-pop song incorporating Balcanic and ethnic influences, the record was described as resembling the lyrical message of Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach".

"I Did It, Mama!" was met with negative to positive reviews, with music critics calling it "an earworm" and "great", while others named it "boring" and unfriendly for radio airplay. An official music video for "I Did It, Mama!" was shot by Bogdan Daragiu and uploaded in November 2015 onto YouTube in order to accompany the single's release. The clip presents Stan being surrounded by different types of half-naked men, and aroused controversy for cut scenes where she is shown miming the sexual intercourse and oral sex with one of her background dancers. Commercially, the track peaked at number nine in Stan's native country.

The song was written by Marcel Botezan, Sebastian Barac, J-Son, Eric Turner, David Ciente and Stan, while production was handled by both Botezan and Barac under their alias Play & Win, and Ciente. Lyrically, "I Did It, Mama!" is about the "conflict between different generations, more specific between children and their parents". Throughout the lyrics, Stan urges her parents to accept her misunderstood new boyfriend. However, with the refrain of the song, she stands her ground, repeating the track's title several times. Bradely Stern, writing for music website Pop Crush, compared the message of the song to that of Madonna's "Papa Don't Preach" (1986), while Stan herself confessed that "[the song] is a more rebellious recording that parents may not understand from the first play". She has, as well, named the tune a mixture between europop, reggaeton and Balkanic music. Hitfire described "I Did, It Mama!" as a "successful" dance-pop track, and Gay Times named it an "eurodance banger". Carlo Andriani of Italian portal Daring To Do pointed out ethnic influences featured into its composition.
