"Backup" by Aÿa is a powerful anthem that demands attention and resonates with those who have experienced toxic relationships.  The first track from an EP, due for release at the end of June, The song serves as a clear requirement and a direct statement to anyone who is clearly not good for one's heart. Aÿa's growth as an artist shines through in this track, as she reflects on past relationships where red flags were waving but she chose to ignore them, jumping into the fire and knowing it would hurt.

Through deep self-work, Aÿa has undergone a transformation, choosing to listen to the warning signs and no longer being afraid of disappointing those who disappoint her. "Backup" is a defiant rejection of lies, fights, and big egos. Aÿa realizes that it takes too much energy to try and fix other people's lives, acknowledging that everyone has their own problems.

The song's lyrics serve as an emergency landing guideline, reminding us that we must prioritize ourselves and our own well-being in this capitalistic world. Aÿa's impassioned vocals and the empowering message of "Backup" make it a must-listen for anyone seeking strength and self-empowerment.
