Background and videos

The EP was released in 2010, the same years as each of the videos for the songs. The song "Booty Call" is about when the three members of the band, Stefan, Dru and Ash, have a sleepover at Stef's house. They involve themselves in various activities such as doing their hair, playing My Little Pony and watching movies. The song "Daddy" tells the story of Dru's past, when his father left him for their family's Spanish cleaner. It also shows how Dru reacts to this, which involves him eating excessively. "Fashion Innit" is a skit about the Band learning about fashion. The video for "Daddy" was uploaded to YouTube on 24 June 2010. [2] The Booty Call video was uploaded on 12 August 2010 and has since had over 4,000,000 views. [3] The video for Fashion Innit featured Stefan receiving a call from Zane Lowe, asking them to do a "Gonzo Report" on fashion. The song then commences, and at the end they decide to decline the offer. Track 2 on the EP is a clean version of Booty Call.
