[1] It was written by Maluma, Bryan Lezcano, Kevin Jiménez and Edgar Barrera, and was produced by Edge.
The music video for "Marinero" premiered on 4 May 2018 on Maluma's Vevo account on YouTube.
The music video starts with Maluma entering an establishment by himself that appears to be a bar.
As Maluma prepares to take a sip of the bottle that was just handed to him, he decides to first remove the sunglasses that he has been wearing throughout the video up until this moment.
Maluma's eyes are then revealed to be full of tears, implying that the singer is in a current state of melancholy.
