Ye Yo

'Ye Yo' is a song by singer Erykah Badu. It was released on Erykah's first live album, aptly titled Live, in November 1997. The song is based on and interpolates 'Sometimes', featured on Erykah's debut album. The song may be confused with 'Sometimes', but they are two different songs in both writing and production.
== Writing and composition ==
The song is based on and samples the song Sometimes from Erykah's debut album, Baduizm, especially the chorus where she says 'Ye yo, ye yo'. 
The songwriting theme of this song is based on loneliness and needing others as help or to hold someone close. 'Ye yo' which is repeated at the start of the song means mother in the language Maasai, and Erykah adlibs the words 'Help me' meaning she needs her mother's help.
