    "Fiesta (Remix)" is a song by singer R. Kelly featuring rappers Jay-Z and Boo & Gotti from his 2000 album TP-2.com. The hit song spent five weeks at number-one on the US Billboard R&B chart and peaked at number six on the Billboard Hot 100. R. Kelly and Jay-Z have worked several times together. In 2002, they released the album The Best of Both Worlds, which sold 285,000 copies in its first week. The single is ranked by Billboard as the best selling and most played R&B/hip-hop song of 2001.[1]

    Background

    "Fiesta (Remix)" follows R. Kelly's previous single and music video, "The Storm Is Over Now" from his 2000 album TP-2.com. In 2001, the song spent five weeks at #1 on the US Billboard R&B chart and also reached #6 on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart. The original "Fiesta" featured rapper Jadakiss. However, Jadakiss' verse was replaced by Boo & Gotti before the track was added as one of the 19 tracks on TP-2.com.

    Music video

    The music video for the single was directed by R. Kelly and Little X in Florida.[2][3]
