"Crush" is Fugative's signature hip pop at its finest, a huge track with a killer chorus and fresh rhymes.
Fugative aka Harry Byart exploded into the charts with his debut single "It's Summertime" which stuck in the Top Five of the urban chart for an incredible 17 weeks garnering an immediate fanbase including Radio 1 DJ Nick Grimshaw. His follow up track "Jimmy Shoe" made him a YouTube phenomenon and with the recent underground release of "Supafly" his views on the site have notched up to an incredible 3 million hits.

Having led the way with his very own genre defying style of 'hip-pop' - Hip Hop with a pop twist, Fugative has proven his worth as one of the hottest young producers, songwriters and instrumentalists in the game.
So it comes as no surprise that Fugative has teamed up with US heavy-weight hip hop/R&B producer Younglord who's chart topping productions include P.Diddy's comeback single "Come to Me" featuring head Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger and hits for Beyoncé, Lil Kim, G-Unit, Mary J Blige, Mariah Carey and DMX.
With U.S management interest from Kirk Burrowes who founded legendary Bad Boy Records with P-Diddy, Fugative is already a player in the big game and has been travelling back and forth between London and Atlanta where he has been recording new material for his debut album due to drop later this year.
As well as working with Younglord, Fugative has been in the studio with 88 Keyz (Alicia Keys, Lady Gaga, Ne-Yo, Kanye West), Dirty Bird (Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne), Cutfather (Jordan Sparks, Pixie Lott) and Soulshock & Karlin (JLS, Cheryl Cole).
Fugative supported Basshunter on his UK tour in 2009 to then perform on a sell out 40 date headline tour before Christmas last year notching up an impressive 160 gigs in the last 18 months.
"Crush" is released on the 10th May, 2010 with remixes from Moto Blanco, DVA and Nadastrom.
