This is what AKA have said;

‘This Bristol based trio fuse together something positive and upbeat; with major chords, a memorable pop chorus, urban beats and an African tempo all coming together to tell a musical story, this is real song writing. The track went straight to number 10 in the AKA chart, in the first week of being play listed which is a great indication to how viewers feel about the track. We will definitely be keeping a close eye on First Place this year’

The Music Industry is in unchartered waters. One thing holds true however; that labels are taking less risks on artists and artists now have more power than ever to take control of their careers. The advent of the internet, mp3s, reality TV shows, games and media consumption in general have changed the business model dramatically. Although every situation - label, artist is different, one truthful generalisation is that labels want to jump on a moving train; they want some action or artist-created-buzz before they commit to signing an artist.
