"Oh Yeah" is the firstsingle from Trinidadian American femalehip-hop artistFoxy Brown's third albumBroken Silence.
"Oh Yeah" was released on May 4, 2001 in the United States. Initially, it was released through the mixtape circuit in late 2000 with alternate lyrics- most notably on Foxy Brown'sBest of Foxy Brown mixtape in 2000, hosted byDJ Envy.
The single was unsuccessful, receiving little airplay on urban radio stations (though popular onNew York City and the upper East Coast urban stations) and little video rotation onMTV, though it was slightly more successful onBET. It missed theBillboard Hot 100 and peaked on the R&B/Hip-Hop Singles & Track Chart at number 63.[2]
The single featured a sample of the song "54-46 That's My Number" by the Jamaican reggae and ska bandToots & the Maytals. The UK version of the single is enhanced and contains a music video of "Oh Yeah", playable when inserted into a computer. Another version of the single was released without "BK Anthem" and with an alternate cover.[3]
The music video was shot in Jamaica in the middle of 2001. It starts with Foxy Brown rapping in a forest near the river and later with her then boyfriend and the track's featuring artist Spragga Benz. The second verse shows her at a party with her group Fox 5 (which includes her older brother Gavin Marchand). The song ends with Brown on the stage dancing and performing in front of a crowd. Towards the end of the verse of the performance, a snippet of "Tables Will Turn," a song fromBroken Silence comes on briefly.[4]
"BK Anthem", a song that was originally recorded and released as a street single in late 2000 was released as a B-side to the "Oh Yeah" single. The music video was shot with a camcorder style. The song peaked at number 82 on the USBillboard R&B charts and failed to make the Billboard Hot 100.[5]
