‘Sax’ has been a long time coming. You must be fit to burst with excitement?
I am so excited about this song coming out. I have had to sit on it for so long and only played it to my family and friends a week before it came out. I am so excited. It’s really old skool with a modern twist. When my mum heard it she said to me that it kind of sounded like the music she grew up listening to. The whole album has that vibe.
