"Ooh!" is the second single from Mary J. Blige's sixth studio album Love & Life. Released in 2003, the Diddy produced single reached #29 on the Billboard Hot 100. A remix was later released officially titled the "G-Unit Remix" that featured 50 Cent, Lloyd Banks, and Young Buck. The song was not released in the UK as "Not Today" was chosen as the second single.
A video was shot for the song. It viewed Mary fighting/dancing different Marys, who all represented her inner emotions and feelings. The video was dedicated to the soldiers in the war. Stating at the beginning of the video "This is dedicated to everyone fighting the war.....The war in your mind.......To be free...." This video was quickly shelved for a Greatest Hits DVD.
The song sampled interpolations of the 1991 hip-hop classic, "I Gotta Have It" by Ed OG, which itself sampled Hamilton Bohannon's 1973 track "Singing a Song for My Mother".
