Legacy
Kaleth Morales remains one of the most influential vallenato "New Wave" songwriters. His music, with beats that could change radically several times through a song, led this movement and made vallenato popular even with the next generation of youth.
His legacy includes the best-selling album, Único ("Unique"), with his friend Juank Ricardo, released in November 2005, shortly after his death. Único's tracks were mostly composed and written by Kaleth. His first two albums are still popular in Ecuador. Vivo en el Limbo, similarly, has been subject to a number of covers and remixes by various groups such as Latin Dreams, months before his death, and Salserín, in an homage.
Sony BMG also released a compilation album on June 26, 2006, Kaleth Morales en Guitarra ("Kaleth Morales on Guitar"), with previously unreleased tracks such as Lo Mejor Para Los Dos (Todo de Cabeza) ("The Best For Us Both (Everything Upside down)") which became an instant hit.
