“Tek” is Davido‘s successful fusion of Afropop, R&B, and Latin flair, featuring the fiery US-Mexican star Becky G. The song, whose title is a Nigerian Pidgin onomatopoeia for the act of taking or hitting something repeatedly (often sexually suggestive), frames a romantic encounter as a legal proceeding—specifically, a fun, flirtatious arrest. Davido opens with the mock-serious phrase, “You have the right to remain silent / ‘Cause anything you say will be held against you / In this court of this bedroom.” It’s playful, confident, and sets the stage for a passionate power struggle.

The track is an immediate vibe, driven by a groovy, synth-laced beat that features rhythmic jazz horns, which critics noted as a highlight. Becky G delivers a compelling verse, flipping the concept into Spanish, asking, “Si tienes la llave, ¿por qué ‘tás teasing?” (If you have the key, why are you teasing?), and telling him to “Read me your rights, come and lock me up / Then take me down, arrest me.” The bilingual back-and-forth makes the song feel expansive and distinctly international. While the melodic structure is simple, it’s undeniably catchy and perfect for a late-night drive or a dance floor session.
