"OopDeeWopDee" is a hip hop, R&B, and soul song by Casablanca Records recording group NSS16. The song features Universal Records David Banner and Aloe Blacc. Released on April 20, 2004, the song was written by Greg Lawson, Mike Anthony, and multi-media activist Hakeem Khaaliq who served as the co-producer, music video treatment writer and Music video director for the single. Lyrically, the song is a young woman's plea to stay virtuous. Due to internal problems between management and the group never toured.[1][2]

In Billboard Magazine, the remix featuring David Banner peaked at #49 on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Singles Sales, which ranks sales of physical singles.[3]
