Stefflon Don turns up the heat this summer with her scorching new single ‘Move It.’

Arriving in tandem with the femcee’s performance at Glastonbury 2023 this week, the track is built around a sample of Reel 2 Real‘s Dance classic ‘I Love To Move.’

True to form, Steff garnishes the song with her own fiery flavor and blazes with her fierce flow.

Speaking on the track (which is housed on her forthcoming album ‘Island 54’), the star said:

“Reel 2 Real’s ‘I Like To Move’ is one of the most instantly recognisable songs of all time, so it was an honour to have the chance to reimagine the original and bring my own flavour to it. I had a lot of fun creating the track with the gifted Space Primates, and there was little doubt that this was the perfect record to launch my comeback with. I wanna see you all move it this summer!”
