## Background and release

On May 7, 2020 SM Entertainment announced that its artists DJ Raiden and Chanyeol of boy band Exo would team up for a single called "Yours", which will feature Lee Hi and Changmo. The following day on May 8, the agency uploaded teaser images of Raiden and Chanyeol. On May 11, SM uploaded two different teasers on YouTube; the first one shows Raiden playing organ, while Chanyeol sets up a camera. The second teaser meanwhile, revealed more of the song as Chanyeol sang its chorus by the window, while Raiden plays the organ and an electric guitar.
   ... previously, I was more focused on my career as a DJ and producer in the dance/electronic music scene, but this song was everything I had dreamed of – being able to collaborate with brilliant musicians from many musical genres to make wonderful music.
On May 12 the single was digitally released alongside its music video. A day later, the agency released the acoustic version of the song with Chanyeol on drums, Changmo on piano, and Raiden on guitar. This version premiered on Naver TV, and V Live, before being uploaded to SM Entertainment's YouTube channel on May 14.

## Composition and lyrics

"Yours" was composed by Rob Adans, Raiden, Changmo, and Benjamin Samama. Musically, "Yours" is a synth-pop song infused with funky rhythms reminiscent of funk music from the 1970s. CNN Indonesia described the song as a fusion between disco and R&B with a touch of retro by the synthesizer.
"Yours" tells the story of someone who is still pining for an ex-lover after their romantic relationship fell apart. The lyrics also refer to the COVID-19 pandemic and the subsequent social distancing. Raiden aimed for the song to spread positivity and warmth worldwide. Chanyeol, who was also involved in the song's production process revealed that he had been wanting to collaborate with Raiden for quite some time, stating "I've been writing a lot of music and wanting to release new material but I simply could not find the "one."" After listening to the demo of "Yours", Chanyeol was satisfied as it matched what he had envisioned.
Changmo, who was responsible for writing the rap lyrics joined the project after expressing his desire to be part of the song. He claimed that writing the rap lyrics was "cool" as it was different from his usual style of hip-hop music.

## Music video

The music video for the song was released simultaneously with the single on May 12.
The concept for the music video originated from Changmo's direction which Lee Hi and Chanyeol liked. The video itself was quite simplistic as it shows Chanyeol moving across four different rooms that portray winter, autumn, summer, and spring. Raiden makes an appearance on the music video playing guitar and a synthesizer.
On May 15, SM Entertainment uploaded a video of the song's production process.
