Background
It was announced on 25 July 2012 that the song would serve as one of five official tracks for the London 2012 Olympics. The song had been demo-ed by Smurfie Syco before finally featuring vocals from Pepper, who has performed with him a handful of times following their first collaboration at last year's V Festival. Pepper was signed to his Dirtee Skank record label after she was discovered on Must Be the Music, where Dizzee appeared as a vocal judge.
Music video
The music video for the song was uploaded to YouTube on 26 July 2012 at a length of two minutes and thirty-seven seconds.
Critical reception
Robert Copsey of Digital Spy gave the song a mixed review stating:
"I feel like Rocky on the steps/ I could have drowned in the blood and the sweat," he insists over punchy beats, swooping strings and twinky electro-swizzles, his flow still packing a considerable punch. As with most sports songs this summer it's not the most lyrically adventurous ("Scream it from your heart/ Feel it from your soul," guest star Pepper sings on the chorus), but as a rousing stadium-filler, it does the job nicely. .
