"Oh Yeah" is the second single recorded by South Korean duo GD & TOP (G-Dragon and T.O.P) for their self-titled album GD & TOP (2010). It features their then YG Entertainment label-mate Park Bom. The song was released alongside "High High" on December 15, 2010 through YG Entertainment. The song was a commercial success, peaking at the No. 2 position on the Gaon Music Chart, becoming the duo's highest peak on the chart, and selling over a million copies.

Background

In an attempt to create their own style separate from their band, BigBang, the duo opted for a more hip-hop sound as GD & TOP to contrast the group's current genre of electronic music.[1] Released simultaneously with "High High," "Oh Yeah" has been described as a "club song" due to its "beat drop".[2] Bom's vocal was also praised.[2] The duo have explained that "Oh Yeah" lyrically explores the theme of freedom.[3] A Japanese version was released the following year, along with a music video.[3]
