"Hypest Hype"
Song

"Hypest Hype" is a song by electronic music duo Chase & Status. It was released on November 8, 2010 as a promotional single for their second studio album No More Idols, which was released on January 28, 2011. It also serves as the third overall single released from the album. The song features vocals from English grime MC Tempa T and contains vocal elements of the song "Been Down So Long" by The Doors from their 1971 blues-based album L.A. Woman.[2]

Background and release

"Hypest Hype" received radio support after the release of "Let You Go" (reaching BBC Radio 1's A-List) implying it would be the third single. Instead, the song was released as a free download through their official website. However, it did chart at #70 on the UK Singles Chart and number seven in the UK Dance Chart after the release of the album. On November 21, 2010, Q magazine dubbed the song as their "Track of the Day".[3]
