"Key Key Karimba" is a 1987 Italo disco single recorded and released by Italy-based act Baltimora. It was the group's first single of 1987. The song itself featured on the band's final studio album Survivor in Love, which was released the same year.[1] This single had the last promotional music video from Baltimora created. "Key Key Karimba" was an attempt for Baltimora to make a comeback after the disappointing sales of previous singles such as "Woody Boogie" and "Juke Box Boy".

Despite the promotional video, the single failed to make any impact worldwide, only peaking at #37 in Italy.
