Amigos Con Derechos is a playful crossover between Mexico’s pop trio Reik and Colombia’s urban superstar Maluma. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of two friends who decide to upgrade their chemistry into a friends-with-benefits pact. Instead of flowers and promises, the singer offers something far more mischievous: his eyes so she can see how gorgeous she is, his hands to help her touch the clouds, and his kisses… as long as she gives them back so he has an excuse to see her again. It is a flirtatious deal built on instant attraction, secrecy, and the thrill of living in the moment.
While the chorus insists “yo no te pido que te enamores,” the verses sparkle with temptation. We hear the story of their first encounter in the Plaza de San Juan at 8:15, the coy glances, and the magnetic pull that ends with clothes on the floor. Both artists celebrate pleasure without labels: they are “amigos con derechos,” keeping their escapades between four walls even though “todo el mundo ya sospeche.” Under the tropical beat, the song becomes an anthem for anyone who has ever wanted passion without strings… or at least without admitting the strings are there.
Reik is a Mexican pop rock band hailing from Mexicali, Baja California, formed in 2003 by Jesús Alberto Navarro Rosas (lead vocals), Julio Ramírez Eguía (guitar), and Gilberto Marín Espinoza (guitar). Known for their heartfelt lyrics and catchy melodies, the band initially captured fans with their romantic Latin pop sound through albums like their self-titled debut and "Un Día Más," which won a Latin Grammy.
Since 2015, Reik has evolved by embracing urban influences, collaborating with reggaeton stars such as Nicky Jam, Ozuna, and Maluma. This transition revitalized their music, earning them chart-topping hits like "Me Niego" and "Amigos Con Derechos," and expanding their popularity across Latin America and beyond. With multiple awards and a dynamic sound that blends pop rock and Latin urban styles, Reik continues to be a leading force in contemporary Latin music.
