It’s the news you’ve all been waiting for kids, the mighty East 17 are back and this time they’re ****ing angry.
Minus songwriter and pivotal member Tony Mortimer, the group have renamed themselves E-17 and are releasing the fetchingly titled ‘**** That’ in the spring.
Basically a parody of an Americanised pop track, the hilarious song is a two fingers up at all the woes that Brian Harvey and the other two have faced over recent years, and includes the word “****” a massive 35 times. Naughty boys.
The cutting lyrics read: “Angry about having my hands tied, musically shitted, taken for a ride. Singing other people’s shit, making it a hit, it don’t fit.
"Judged everywhere you go, putting on a show, compromising. **** the industry, **** the enemy, A&R people don’t know shit.”
Sour grapes anyone?!
