"Aye" is a song by American rapper Lil Uzi Vert featuring fellow American rapper Travis Scott. It was released on June 30, 2023 as the third track from the former's third studio album Pink Tape, and was later included as the seventh track on the "first edition" of the latter's fourth studio album Utopia with a different mix, before later being replaced with "Meltdown" featuring Drake. The song was produced by Bnyx and Brandon Finessin of Working on Dying and Ben Thomas.
Composition
The production of the song begins with strings, which later change pitch, and a slow-tempo trap beat with minimal hit-hats and snares and a booming bass. The rappers perform in a similar vocal and melodic style. Lil Uzi Vert uses an overall rough tone in their performance, consisting of shouts and emphatic lines, while Travis Scott follows Uzi's flow with some switching and more high-pitched vocalizations.[2]
