Following on from their triumphant Royal Variety performance, which saw the band perform for Prince Charles, N-Dubz announce their first release of 2011, brand new single ‘Morning Star.’
Released via All Around The World & Island Records, ‘Morning Star’ is the third single from the Camden trio’s most recent Top 10 album, ‘Love.Live.Life’ with over a quarter of a million copies of the album sold in a month.
Another example of the band’s trademark euphoric pop, on this all new radio edit Dappy and Fazer wax lyrical on this brand new single version, about missing someone special, while Tulisa’s sweet, sing-along chorus introduces flavours of the Rose Royce classic, ‘Wishing On A Star’ to a whole new generation.
2010 has been another phenomenal year for N-Dubz. In December they announced their first UK arena tour; the first UK Urban act to embark on such major venues. The Love.Live.Life 10-date tour will see the band play to their biggest audiences ever, taking in every part of the country and climaxing with a huge show at London’s O2; N-Dubz’s hometown.
The past 12 months have also seen the band sign a five album deal with Def Jam America, win a MOBO award, a BRIT nomination, fans in the form of Gary Barlow and Lil’ Wayne and an almost unmatchable online presence, with 100 million views on YouTube, 1 million friends on Facebook and 200,000 followers on Twitter. 2010 also saw the release of a Sunday Times Bestselling book: ‘Against All Odds: From Street Life To Chart Life,’ their own major Channel 4 reality series: ‘Being N-Dubz,’ while Tulisa presented the BBC3 documentary ‘My Mum And Me’ about her mum’s struggle with mental illness.
Without question, N-Dubz are one of the most culturally significant groups in contemporary British pop music. Their most recent album ‘Love.Live.Life’ debuted straight inside the Top Ten and they have sold over 1 million copies of their debut album, ‘Uncle B’ (2008) and its 2009 follow-up, ‘Against All Odds.’ The antithesis of manufactured, mass-produced pop puppets, the Camden three have already left an indelible mark on the charts, while their cultural impact – from their look to their sound, slang and catchphrases – is unequivocal.
