No Stopping Me Now

"No Stopping Me Now" is a single by Kuboian television personality and rapper Amy-Elizabeth featuring Kuboian rapper and A-List member Mayzie Kat. The song was produced by Kool Teazer, and released on 2nd September 2007 as the sixth and final single from Amy-Elizabeth's self-titled debut studio album. Though less of a success than the other singles on the album, it still managed to peak at number five on the Karuboia charts.

Background
"No Stopping Me Now" is the second time Amy-Elizabeth had collaborated with a member of A-List, having previously featured on Stella C's 2005 single "Don't Back Down". Stella C was originally penned to be the featured artist on the song, but she suggested that Amy-Elizbeth included Mayzie Kat instead.

During the summer of 2007, Amy-Elizabeth was conflicted on whether to release one more single from the Amy-Elizabeth album or not, as she noticed that the album was a very big success in Europe but that people were "probably getting sick of [her]". In spite of this, her manager Rodrick Miles pressured her into releasing one more single. She chose "No Stopping Me Now" as she would normally play it during live performances.

"No Stopping Me Now" is the first track on the Amy-Elizabeth album. She was conflicted over whether it should be the first or last track as she felt it was a more "reflective" song. She ultimately chose it make it the first track, saying "Y'know, 'No Stopping Me Now' is kind of an icebreaker song for me. It kinda tells you about who I am, so I felt it was best to put it as the first song on the album."

Music and lyrics
"No Stopping Me Now" is in the key of F major and has a tempo of 94 beats per minute. Over an instrumental that uses synthesisers, violins and drum snares, Amy-Elizabeth and Mayzie Kat rap about the difficulties they faced trying to kickstart their careers but also being thankful about having found success. Amy-Elizabeth raps the first and third verse and performs the chorus, whilst Mayzie Kat raps the second verse.

Critical reception
Whilst reviewing the Amy-Elizabeth album, a Pop Magazine critic offered some praise for "No Stopping Me Now" citing "The first track on the album is ironically the most 'lipstick'-sounding" though also citing "Amy-Elizabeth gets the listener hooked with her smooth flow and head-bopping hook. The guest rap by A-List member Mayzie Kat isn't bad either."

Music video
The music video for "No Stopping Me Now" premiered on Nick Video 17th August 2007 and uploaded to Amy-Elizabeth's YouTube channel two days later. The video features white and grey-coloured props, with Amy-Elizabeth and Mayzie Kat also wearing white outfits that contrast the black background.
