Yodel It, a combination of rapping and yodelling, was already released as a digital single in January.
A remix by Al Mike was released in April.
Another remix, by DJ Pantelis & DJ Pete was released in September.

The track was re-released in a remastered version with altered lyrics (the "sh1t" line is replaced) by Universal on March 29 with a karaoke version.
