Overall Meaning

The song "Outa Space" by Machel Montano and Xtatik featuring Beanie Man is about the party being too crowded on earth that there's no more space for people to dance, and they need to go to outer space to have more room. It starts with Beanie Man saying that the dance is too ram, and there's no space for everyone to dance. He introduces Xtatik as the band, and then they jump into the chorus, "Unidentified flying objects, up in the sky." Machel Montano asks everyone to point their fingers at the UFO (their flag), and Beanie Man counts down the ready for blast-off. They all shout, "Outa Space!"

The lyrics then switch to Beanie Man and Machel Montano talking about how the dancehall is full and the music is playing, and the women are wining up their waist. They have to leave tonight and pack all their bags and instruments. In the next part, there are shouts of, "Haile Haile I-O!" and "Let your body gravitate," as they fly away to outer space. The chorus keeps repeating that there are unidentified flying objects in the sky and the party is going out of space before ending with the repetition of "Haile Haile I-O."

The song is all about having enough space to dance and party, and the solution is to fly away to outer space, which is a metaphor for finding a way out of the crowd and the noise to have some fun. The song is a mix of reggae, dancehall, and soca, which is a unique blend of Caribbean music styles. It's high-energy, upbeat, and catchy, making it a party favorite.
