It’s a UK thing: Mis-teeq chat with ilikemusic.com

"We were very determined," declares Sabrina, "and we knew what we wanted, but sometimes it was really really hard. Especially when you didn't have any money and you had to decide between going to your part-time job to earn money, or going to an audition or a showcase for a record company that you really needed to be at."

But the girls think that they needed that struggle in order to really appreciate what they've achieved.

"The people you mistreat on the way up could be the ones to help you on the way down."

"This didn't fall in our lap," adds Sabrina. "It was hard work to get here, so now we really appreciate everything that goes on, and take each day as it comes, trying to be as creative as possible."

The girls had hoped to collaborate with Damage too, but it didn't happen this time round, but they hope to get it.

"We wanted to collaborate with British artists," says Sabrina. "But what tends to happen in the British game is that everyone is for themselves, and nobody wants to collaborate, Whereas, in America, it's such a common thing that people feature or collaborate, and it's about time that us as British artists started to stand together and help each other out by doing things together. I mean, when we're backstage at a show, everyone meets each other and can understand the pressures that everyone's going through because we're in the same industry."
