Live It Up is the second solo single by British singer Tulisa, and features guest vocals from American rapper Tyga. The song is taken from her debut studio album, The Female Boss , and was released on 9 September 2012.
The song was announced as Tulisa's second single on 24 July 2012. When asked about the song, Tulisa told Capital FM: "This is now me going back to me and trying to define myself as an artist because I knew I wanted a number one hit as my first release. I got that with 'Young', so I went even more urban with this second single. I don't expect it to even possibly get top ten it's that urban, but you never know. The fanbase could pull through, the N-Dubletts could pull through, and it is a smash but it's an urban smash and I know that in the UK these days it is a lot tougher with urban music." [1]
The lyric video for the song premiered on 24 July 2012. [2] The music video for the song was shot in Hawaii and is directed by Colin Tilley. The official video premiered on 20 August 2012.[ citation needed ]
