"Perro Fiel" (English: "Faithful Dog") is a song by Colombian singer Shakira, featuring American singer Nicky Jam. It was written by Shakira, Nicky Jam, Saga WhiteBlack and Juan Medina, and produced by the former three.[2] The song was released on 29 September 2017 as the sixth single from Shakira's eleventh studio album, El Dorado (2017).[3][4]

Background[edit]

The song was first recorded by American singer Nicky Jam on his own, recording the track as a demo for his album Fénix, though it was never fully executed for the album and was presented later to Shakira, who wrote new lyrics for the song and made it a part of her album. The original demo was leaked on the Internet in late 2016.

Chart performance[edit]

As of September 2017, the song has moved almost 19,000 copies in the United States according to Nielsen SoundScan.[5]

Music video[edit]

The music video was filmed and directed by Jaume de Laiguana in late July 2017 in Barcelona and was released on 15 September 2017.[6]
