The X Factor has crowned its 14th winner, and for the second time ever, a group has won. Rak-Su's original track Dimelo is out now, with Wyclef Jean on board and Naughty Boy on production!

Such a bop, it's been in my head on and off since they first performed it in week 2. So refreshing for a winning single too!

The Rak-Su logo is very 90s I must say!

Shouldn't this thread be in the R&B forum instead?


This is easily the best winner's song of all time from the best group of all X Factor time in my opinion.

I quite like this song but it'd be nice if we had a full studio version. What's the point of getting Naughty boy on as the featured producer if it's a muffled track with dodgy vocals?

Since it's Rak-Su's own song, I wonder if the "winner's single campaign" will be different to other years with a proper music video and studio version being released in the New Year. The song itself has legs!

It sort of is, but it sounds like it was recorded live pre-show in the XF studio or something. It's not a properly mixed studio version, no.

It's probably the same as the other performances the show releases on iTunes, I believe they're recorded in dress rehearsal so it's just the act and free from the audience screaming or whatever, but it's not a proper studio mix. How ridiculous really that they got Naughty Boy on board to tag on as a name, but couldn't actually utilize the fact all he does is produce to make a proper studio quality of the song laugh.gif

It is a studio version you can hear it’s been recorded in the studio it’s just a very rushed not a very polished studio version.

This could be true actually, obviously whether them or Grace won they would have an easier time getting another song out because they've written before and have songs ready to go probably. This could just be a stopgap then they either get a new one or spruce up one of their existing ones with a producer or something. Could be somewhat of a pilot too and a safety net, if their own songs do well in Q1 they might get bigger names for the album.

Very cheesy. Also way to jump on the Latino trend a year later.

As much as I despise them, it's hardly jumping on it a year later when Havana is still number 1 laugh.gif
