Ayayay! (stylized in all caps) is the third studio album by Mexican singer Christian Nodal released through Fonovisa Records and Universal Music Latin Entertainment. It was first released as an EP on May 29, 2020, and then as a full album titled Ayayay! (Deluxe) on September 11, 2020.[1] A super deluxe version was also released.[2] The album was produced by Jaime González and features a collaboration with Angela Aguilar in its super deluxe version.

At the 21st Annual Latin Grammy Awards, the EP was nominated for Best Ranchero/Mariachi Album while the title track was nominated for Best Regional Mexican Song.[3] The following year, the super deluxe version was nominated for Best Ranchero/Mariachi Album while "Aquí Abajo" won Best Regional Mexican Song at the 22nd Annual Latin Grammy Awards.[4] Additionally, both the EP and the super deluxe version were nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Regional Mexican Music Album (including Tejano) in 2021 and 2022, respectively, being Nodal's first Grammy Award nominations.[5][6] The EP was also nominated for Regional Mexican Album of the Year at the 2021 Billboard Latin Music Awards.[7]

The album features the use of Mexican slang as well as Mexican references, namely on the title of the album, which comes from the Mexican grito, some tracks also have slangs in their titles like "Mi Chula" and "Mamacita", both being ways to refer to women, Nodal has said that "more than anything, AYAYAY! reflects the essence of my character with Mexican words, the vocabulary [on the album] is very Mexican".[8]
