"D.D.D." is a JPop song which is written by Japanese R&B duo Soulhead and their producer Octopussy; Soulhead wrote the lyrics while the team wrote the music together and Octopussy made the musical arrangement. The song appears on Koda's 6th album Best ~second session~, and it is also the 3rd single in the so-called ~12 Single~ Collection. As with the other 11 singles in this collection, the cover of the single represents a stylized version of a traditional dress from a culture; this time it draws its inspiration from the United Kingdom and the symbolic figure Britannia. The single was a limited edition release of 50,000 copies, and was released with Kumi Koda credited as the main artist and Soulhead as featured artists. It was also touted as "Girl's Anthem from 3 Diamonds" which indicates that "D.D.D." is an abbreviation for "Diamond Diamond Diamond". The song is an uptempo R&B-influenced girl power anthem, heavily inspired by Missy Elliott and Rockwilder's production of "Lady Marmalade", using a 4-bar rhythm and a blend of synths and guitars. The lyrics are in Japanese with lines, phrases and words in English, and it is sung like a duet, only interrupted by a rap by one of the Soulhead girls. A variation of "D.D.D." called "Xxx" and credited to Soulhead featuring Kumi Koda first appeared on the double A-side single Pray/Xxx, released by Soulhead on 1 February 2006.
