Yummy (Gwen Stefani song)
"Yummy" is a song written and performed by American singer Gwen Stefani featuring fellow American musician Pharrell Williams from the former's second solo studio album, The Sweet Escape (2006). The track was released on November 11, 2006, as a promotional single for the parent album's release through Interscope Records. It was developed during several sessions in Miami, Florida, and Hollywood, California, in July 2005, for an intended EP or as extra tracks on Stefani's video album Harajuku Lovers Live (2005). The song was produced by the Neptunes. Musically, the collaboration is a dance-pop recording with a "day-glo" rap. Its lyrics deal with food, sexual intercourse, and the roles that an individual may have within a household.
