“THROWBACK” is Jay Wheeler’s unapologetically sensual postcard to a past fling he just can’t shake. Over a smoky reggaetón beat, the Puerto Rican crooner paints a vivid picture of late-night drives, clouded Teslas, and steamy back-seat encounters. Every line drips with nostalgia as he admits he’s been restless without her, jealous when he spots her out with friends, and eager to remind her who really knows her body.
Beneath the explicit imagery lies a familiar theme: the magnetic pull of chemistry that refuses to fade. Wheeler celebrates the thrill of dangerous attraction—posing for flex-worthy photos, fantasizing about tying her close, and reliving those high-school-level sparks. It’s a bold, playful anthem about craving the past, owning your desires, and turning up the heat one more time for old times’ sake.
