As a whole, the song is a feel-good summer anthem that’ll get your blood pumping. It ultimately meshes warm steel pan drums with an unwavering bassline, xylophone loops, and other dancehall elements. Between lyrics, Village Boy Prince uses enticing Patois and tries to grab the attention of a woman who’s so fine that she can take his time. 

Afterward, ASSAL showcases a light, honeyed register to say that the feeling is very mutual. Amid the back-and-forth banter, ASSAL and Village Boy Prince make their way to the dance floor, only proving that dance is a vertical expression of a horizontal desire.
