Background

In an attempt to create their own style separate from their band, Big Bang, the duo opted for a more hip-hop sound as GD & TOP to contrast the group's current genre of electronic music.[3] Release simultaneously as "High High," "Oh Yeah" have been described as a "club song" due to its "beat drop"; Bom's vocal was also praised.[4] The duo have explained that "Oh Yeah" lyrically explores the theme of freedom.[5] A Japanese version was released the following year.[5]
