The song earned the Billboard Latin Music Award for "Best Latin Club-Dance Track of the Year".
Critical reception
J.D. Considine from The Baltimore Sun said that "Oye" is "where latin meets disco most effectively. Basically a sort of techno-salsa fusion, it combines the thumping regularity of electronics with the soulful release of Afro-Cuban rhythm, a combination so potent it makes dancing an almost involuntary response."[1] Also Ben Wener from Beaver County Times noted the "bouncing Afro-Cuban flourishes" of the song.[2] Larry Flick from Billboard wrote that the second single from "La Glo's slammin' dance opus", "gloria!", "sidesteps the disco demeanor of the previous "Heaven's What I Feel" in favor of a percussive salsa flavor." He added, "Once again, the veteran singer manages to surprise and delight, delivering a bilingual performance that is fraught with smoldering sensuality. She is bolstered by an arrangement that teeters between current club sounds and the shoulder-shakin' tone of her Miami Sound Machine breakthrough, "Conga". In fact, if you've been pining away for a jam that captures the party vibe of that classic recording, look no further."[3] Joey Guerra from Houston Chronicle stated that it has one of the album's "strongest punches", noting it as a "sweltering bilingual cut that recalls" Puerto Rican singer Ricky Martin's international smash "Maria".[4] Victoria Segal from NME said that songs like "Oye" "speak the international language of tedium".[5] Vibe noted that the song has a "ferocious new energy and a vocal spark that Estefan hasn't previously displayed."[6]
Music video
A music video was made to accompany the song. It was directed by Argentinian director Gustavo Garzón and features Estefan performing the song in a nightclub.
