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.
Background
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."
Music video
The lyric video for the song premiered on 24 July 2012. The music video for the song was shot in Hawaii and is directed by Colin Tilley. The official video premiered on 20 August 2012.

Songs
Live It Up!, Holly Woods' latest album, was recorded in 1986 after Toronto's label, Solid Gold Records, went into receivership forcing the band to split up.
Two of the members, Holly Woods and Scott Kreyer, regrouped and continued on to a studio in Atlanta to record new tracks with producer Sonny Limbo. The album was shopped around but labels shied away,fearing repercussions from Solid Gold. With the unexpected death of Sonny a few years later, any hope of finding a home for the recordings died with him. The tapes were shelved for over twenty years.
In 2007, these "lost masters” were found and released, with the tracks remixed by Cyclone Records' founder Brad Trew.

Vex Magazine states: "Forget all about looking for that retro-80s music you love so much. This album IS 80s music! Originally recorded in 1986 and all but lost until now, the former member of the iconic rock band, Toronto, has released a collection of songs that will have you kicking back with a beer, while fondly reminiscing about the days of mullets, Mustang 5.0s and ‘Res-parties’. Party on!" (May 2007)

Overview
This is the second and final album collaboration between singer Mathis and arranger/conductor Nelson Riddle. Where their earlier album together featured a set list of ballads and swingers, this album features all uptempo songs. As such, it makes a perfect companion to the earlier album.
