M.O
Ain't Got Time

Operator

WE SAY

Street-cool girl group M.O first appeared on SBTV back in October, becoming the most viewed debut A64 in the channel's history. Having spent the latter half of 2012 in the studio with Rack N Ruin, Show N Prove, Preditah & Timothy Bloom, M.O released debut single Wait Your Turn, becoming MistaJam's single of the week as well as picking up a raft of other radio support. Sass and bass-heavy follow-up Ain't Got Time has already been added to 1Xtra, MTV Hits and MTV Base five weeks ahead of release, while the group have been featured by Dazed & Confused (new band of the week), RWD (13 for 2013), Hunger TV and Rinse FM. With Twitter supporters in Ed Sheeran, Wiley and K Koke, M.O seems to be making friends in all the right places. Video.
