"Aye You" by Destra is a dancehall track that encourages an interested individual to come forward and dance with her. The chorus "Aye! You! Boy yuh stickin, Turn meh bumpah round leh meh, Flick it, focus on meh noww and Watch it, watch it, watch it ayee!" is an invitation to the guy she is singing about to come and dance with her. Throughout the song, Destra makes multiple references to her body and the need for physical release, which is common in dancehall and soca music. It's a high-energy song that encourages listeners to let loose and just dance.
