It was released as an official single on 6 February 2011. It is the fourth single released Skepta's third album 'Doin' It Again' and N-Dubz's third album 'Love.Live.Life'. The single peaked at #99 on the UK Singles Chart. BackgroundThe song's radio edit lasts just under three minutes, while the album version has a longer intro and lasts nearly four minutes Skepta described the song to Digital Spy: "It's a fusion. N-Dubz are seen as a pop group and I'm more of an urban artist. Normally when those two collide the result is a big pop tune, but I wanted to do it the other way around and bring out N-Dubz's grime side. Fortunately fans of mine and N-Dubz both seem to love it!" He also explained the delay of the official single release: "I've been waiting for the right time to get it out. There was a bit of a rat race last year with so many grime artists coming out, but I feel like I've got a clear run at the moment and there's a buzz about it. Timing is everything."[http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/music/interviews/a300836/skepta.html Digital Spy - Interview with Skepta] by Robert Copsey. 2011-01-31 Music videoThe music video for "So Alive" premiered on 19 November 2010 on YouTube.
