"Tarot" is a song by Puerto Rican singers and rappers Bad Bunny and Jhayco from the former's fifth studio album Un Verano Sin Ti (2022), on which it appears as the seventh track. It was released on May 6, 2022, by Rimas Entertainment alongside the rest of the album.[1] The song was written by the performers while its production was handled by Tainy, La Paciencia, Albert Hype and Jota Rosa. This marks the fourth time Bad Bunny and Jhayco collaborated each other, following the remix version of "No Me Conoce", "Cómo Se Siente" and "Dakiti". The song's title refers to the pack of playing cards of the same name.

Critical reception

"Tarot" was ranked by Billboard as the seventh and least best collaboration song from Un Verano Sin Ti. The magazine called it "an infectious EDM track about a girl who's the center of attention. While we would've really appreciated hearing the hitmakers explore new sounds in this album's collab, why deviate from something that's worked for them in the past, right?"[2]
