One of Vanessa Hudgens songs is called "Hook it up".
Why is it called like that?

Here is the short part of song:

Everybody likes a fiesta
Everbody wants to have fun
Bring a couple o' friends and I'll betcha
They'll be hooking up with someone

You got the money, money
She´s got the hottie body
We wanna party, party
Hook it all up (hook it up)

Answer

"hooking up" with someone can be slang for getting into an intimate physical relationship with them

Answer

In  the context of this song 'hooking up' refers to people establishing intimate relations with one another at a party. However, you can also 'hook up' with a friend, e.g. meet for a drink in a café. However, the phrase 'hook it up' wouldn't actually be used in conversation when referring to these things, this is creative license for the song (you'd only use the phrase 'hook it up' in general conversation if you were actually hooking an object to another object, e.g. attaching a caravan to a car - "You can hook it up now.")
