Underpinned by a fluid garage beat, the heart-on-sleeve track is bridged with Anne-Marie’s world-class vocals, KSI’s effortless flow and Digital Farm Animals’ production, the fruits of which make for hook-laden remedy to beat the January blues.

About Anne-Marie:Following an action-packed 2020, Anne-Marie is one of the most in-demand pop vocalists, having dropped her comeback track “Birthday” last March, the Mind Charity ambassador followed-up with her Doja Cat collaboration “To Be Young” and culminated last year by being featured on Rudimental’s heralded earworm, “Come Over” with Tion Wayne.

Last November, Anne-Marie released her first-ever documentary entitled ‘How To Be Anne-Marie,’ exclusively on YouTube. Taking us back to her home county of Essex in the United Kingdom and shot at a time when her years’ plans were turned upside down due to the pandemic, the hour-long documentary looks inwards at Anne-Marie’s journey. In the film - which includes an exclusive performance of a new track titled “Problems” - she recounts her difficult school years, the experiences and close bonds she shares with her family and friends back home, as well as the plights on stardom, which she candidly speaks about her with her confidants - Little Mix (watch here).

Anne-Marie’s rise to stardom has been nothing short of meteoric. She has surfaced as a ubiquitous, unshakable, and undeniable voice in pop music worldwide. She remains renowned for witty lyrics, powerhouse vocals, confessional delivery, playful presentation, and irresistible hooks. Since making her debut in 2013, the singer and songwriter has achieved consistent multiplatinum success, tallied over 12 billion-plus streams, and

maintained a spot in Top 100 of Spotify’s “Most Listened-To Artists in the World.” Anne-Marie is currently recording her second studio album.

About KSI:Dissimulation - KSI’s first album - marked the next stage in his evolution, an ambitious record which quickly became the biggest studio debut of 2020 so far. With over half a billion streams, in Dissimulation KSI creates space for both his public persona and the personal: big hit features with the likes of Rick Ross and Lil Baby (Down Like That) and AJ Tracey (Tides) sit alongside more intimate, honest tracks.

With his second album almost completed, a 2021 tour which sold out in seconds, the launch of his own label and a single with Craig David (Really Love), KSI is proving that music is very much his domain.

KSI brings with him the unrelenting work ethic and infectious energy which YouTube instilled in him. Despite his debut’s success, he’s certain Dissimulation just scratched the surface: the next record, he’s clear, will showcase his artistry’s further progression again. KSI is currently working on his follow up studio album, set for release later this year. About Digital Farm Animals:Digital Farm Animals is the multi-platinum producer, songwriter and DJ responsible for some of the biggest hits over the last few years.

He has worked and collaborated with some of the biggest artists in the world, including Marshmello, Jennifer Lopez, will.i.am, Amy Winehouse and more. He was behind Dua Lipa’s breakout hit, “Be The One,” and has gone on to write and produce international hits including Galantis’ “No Money,” Louis Tomlinson and Bebe Rexha’s “Back to You,” Rita Ora’s “Anywhere,” Little Mix’s “Only You” and Aitch’s “Buss Down.”
