"Keii" (transl. "Respect") is a song by Puerto Rican singer Anuel AA and was released in February 7, 2020.[2] It will be included in his upcoming second studio album.[3] The song debuted at number two in Spain and reached number 83 on the US Billboard Hot 100.

Composition

"Keii" was described as a "laid-back dembow swing". In the song, the singer name-drops several songs from fellow artists, such as Anuel AA's own "Ella Quiere Beber" with Romeo Santos, Daddy Yankee's "Con Calma", Bad Bunny's "Callaíta", Don Omar's "Hasta Abajo", DJ Snake's "Taki Taki", Nio Garcia's "Te Boté", Nicky Jam and J Balvin's "X", and Lunay's "Soltera".[3][4]

Music video

The video was released on February 7, 2020, and portrays the artist as Dracula. It was directed by Spliff TV.[3] The storyline was compared to a "gothic romance" in which the singer lures a woman from her wedding into a dark world full of "rampant pleasure".[5][4]
