New Song: 5 After Midnight – ‘Up In Here’ [Penned By MNEK]

The X Factor has birthed many a major act and 5 After Midnight are hoping to be latest.

Finalists on the 2016 season of the UK show, the group were subsequently scooped up by Simon Cowell‘s Syco Music (via Sony) and are being tipped for huge success.

The trio, comprised of Kieron, Jordan, and Nathan, have recruited MNEK (Beyonce’s ‘Hold Up’) for their first swing of the bat and oh do they score a home-run.

Listen below…

A bop.

Slick production, a catchy chorus, and delicious use of the DMX sample, this has all the makings of a summer smash.

The boyband arena has been sparse in recent years, but it’s clear 5AM are aiming to making a major splash.

Could they be joining label-mates Little Mix and Fifth Harmony as the flag-flyers for top-tier groups? Let us know…
