"Like You" is a song by Puerto Rican recording artist Daddy Yankee from his third studio and first commercially released album Barrio Fino which was highly responsible for Reggaetón's mainstream exposure in 2004. It was co-written by Daddy Yankee and Eddie Ávila in the English-language, and produced by Luny Tunes. The song was released as the album's sixth single internationally. In the United States, the song was successful in English markets but failed to impact the Spanish market.

"Like You"'s parent album, Barrio Fino, is regarded as a major factor in Reggaetón mainstream exposure to English-speaking markets in 2004 along with Ivy Queen's Diva and Real and Tego Calderon's El Enemy de los Guasíbiri.Barrio Fino was named the best-selling Latin album and Tropical album by Billboard magazine of the 2000s decade. The album was also the first Reggaetón album to reach #1 on the Top Latin Albums chart.Daddy Yankee's "Gasolina" also from the album is attributed with being the reggaetón song that launched reggaeton into mainstream accounts gaining airplay in not only the United States, but around the world, peaking at #32 of the Billboard Hot 100, something no other reggaetón song at the time had been able to do.

On the review of the album, Jason Birchmeier of Allmusic noted "Like You"'s "English-language crossover" potential. It was written by Yankee along with Eddie Ávila. Lyrically, Yankee is explaining to his love interest that she is the only girl for him, citing the way she makes him feel as a reason why. Despite the lyrical profanity used in the form of the words "fuck" and "ass" on "Like You" and other tracks such as "Santifica Tus Escapularios", Barrio Fino was not labeled and shipped with the Parental Advisory warning sticker.
