Rizzle Kicks, the popular British pop-duo consisting of Jordan Stephens and Harley Alexander-Sule, have announced their highly anticipated return to the music scene. After parting ways nearly 10 years ago, the duo revealed the exciting news on Jordan’s podcast, The Red Carpet Treatment.

Their decision to reunite comes after pursuing acting careers and solo music ventures since their last release in 2015, a cover of DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince’s “Summertime.” Speaking about their comeback, Jordan expressed his belief that their music has aged well and that they represent a nostalgic time in British history, specifically referencing the optimistic year of 2012.

Fans were overjoyed by the announcement and took to social media to share their excitement. One fan exclaimed, “This is the best news I could have gotten this week. RIZZLE KICKS SUMMER!” Others praised the duo’s talent, with one user stating, “Honestly think these two were ahead of their time a little bit. Looking forward to see what they sound like now.”

During their initial run from 2011 to 2013, Rizzle Kicks achieved great success with their albums “Stereo Typical” and “Roaring 20s.” They had multiple charting songs and even reached number one on the UK charts with their collaboration with Olly Murs on “Heart Skips a Beat.”

Reflecting on their decision to split almost a decade ago, the duo opened up about the challenges they faced during that time. Harley mentioned that they were not in a position to be popstars, and Jordan revealed that he was dealing with drug use and crippling anxiety, which took a toll on their health.

Now, as they prepare to make music together again, Rizzle Kicks’ return is eagerly anticipated by fans who have missed their unique sound and infectious energy.

In a shocking revelation, Harley from Rizzle Kicks has opened up about the day the duo decided to take a break from making music together. Speaking about the momentous occasion, he described it as one of the most depressing days of his life.

The decision came after Harley suffered a panic attack following a performance at a festival. Despite the adrenaline rush of performing in front of thousands of people, he found himself feeling worse offstage than he did onstage. Realizing that something was not right, both Harley and his partner looked at each other and decided it was time to call it quits.

Furthermore, Jordan has been hosting a popular podcast since August 2023, where he took over from Nella Rose. The show, currently in its third season, has attracted numerous celebrity guests, including Roman Kemp, James Bay, and Nicola Roberts.
