simply means daddy. Spanish speakers use this term also for their boy friends husbands, dads even children. papi ven aqui= daddy come here.
this term is used quite often
as I can see one of my friends and say Oye papi ven aqui. Hey buddy come here. which properly translated would mean Hey daddy come here. Also a girl can call you Papi or you can be a girls Papi literally. It's like using mate or buddy or darling. I hope this helps.
