Alexandra Burke, winner of the 2008 X Factor, has been working on her biggest challenge yet; to create a song to demonstrate her ability as a pop queen and prove to her audience and fans that she was deemed worthy of the win.

Eight months on and the eagerly anticipated single, ‘Bad Boys’ featuring Flo Rida is here. Produced by The Phantom Boyz this track is here to wow and show off Alexandra’s personal style and taste.

This song certainly brings out the raciness in this girl, who won the competition with ‘Hallelujah’, a million miles away from the hip hop/pop styling of ‘Bad Boys’.

I love Flo Rida’s rapping and the catchy tune. ‘Bad Boys’ is fast paced, loud and in your face, something not unlike the sound of The Pussycat Dolls.

This was well worth the wait.
