"Move Ya Body" is a song by Puerto Rican musical duo Nina Sky. It was released on April 12, 2004, as the lead single from its self-titled debut album (2004). The song features guest vocals by American-Jamaican DJ Jabba. The song became the duo's only solo single to reach the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100. The song was ranked at number 250 on Blender's "500 Greatest Songs Since You Were Born" and is well known for the use of the recurring ostinato on the bongos known as the "Coolie Dance" riddim. This has been the subject and musical motif of many musical samples.
