"Coco Jamboo" is a 1996 song by German Eurodance group Mr. President. It was released in March 1996 as the lead single from their second studio album We See the Same Sun. The song was a hit in many European countries, reaching the top ten on many European charts. It gave the band their only chart entry in the United States, peaking at number 21 on the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 in September 1997.
The song's music video, released in April 1996, featured the band's members walking on a beach and performing the song during the Brazilian Carnival. It was filmed in Venezuela.
During the 1996 holiday season, a Christmas-themed version of "Coco Jamboo" was released by the band, featuring new lyrics and festive instruments. It is currently viewable on YouTube.
Romanian performer Inna recorded a song called "Rendez Vous" for her fourth studio album, Inna (2015), which samples elements from the recording.
