The phrase "hit it" has been used for decades in reference to anything from drugs to music.

Musicians use "hit it!" to start an upbeat song.

Pot smokers use "hit it" when referring to smoking; ie. "let me get a hit of that,".

Most likely "tap it" or "tap that ass" owes its etymology to tapping a keg or anything that requires drilling (oil tap, water tap, etc.). It could also refer to the sound that is produced by particularly vigorous sexual activity.

SORRY FOR THE EDITS, I wanted to clarify a few things.
