In May 2022, Feid announced the single via his social media, scheduled to be released on May 13.[2] Later, he released his fifth studio album Feliz Cumpleaños Ferxxo Te Pirateamos el Álbum, and "Castigo" was included as the second track.[3]

Music and lyrics

edit

Musically, "Castigo" is a reggaeton and sandungueo song to dance to. Lyrically, "Castigo" refers to many women who like to party with their friends without any interest in someone else inviting them and prefer to dance and enjoy themselves without the presence of men to interfere with their celebration.[1] The lyrics includes, "No sé qué pasa conmigo / Que siempre que bailo contigo / Te digo cosas al oído / Te hablo malo, te quiero dar castigo / Aunque seamos solo amigos / No sé qué me pasa contigo / Que te hablo malo, te doy agresivo / Hoy voy a darte castigo, yeah".
