Radio Radio have already shared two previous tracks (“Tonight’s the Night“, “My Dance Floor“) from their upcoming full length Light the Sky. Set to be released February 19th, the new record will be their first entirely in English. Known for their energetic and spirited work, the hip-hop duo have shared the album’s title track.

Although the album is mostly a satirical approach to life and Western society, “Light the Sky” plays with the common metaphor of “light”, the duo explain:

“‘Light the Sky'” is an analogy that refers to a lot of things. Light has many representations in the outside world, and it also emanates from within. Here, the sky stands for the ultimate canvas on which to create art”.

With dance-friendly production, and a staple, catchy chorus, “Light the Sky” heads toward the pop music side of the album, but not without the duo’s crafty wordplay and spirit.
