New pop hunk Elyar Fox says
he doesn’t mind being compared to the likes of Justin Bieber and Conor Maynard
after making the jump from online smash to record label darling.
The 18-year-old Londoner is set to take over the
airwaves this winter with his debut single, Do It All Over Again, and got
signed to Sony’s RCA label after clocking up over 14 million hits on YouTube
with his cover versions of songs.
‘They are both successful and doing really well right
now. I would be flattered to be compared to someone as successful and making
great music,’ the singer told Guilty Pleasures, saying he doesn’t object to
comparisons.
‘What separates me is that I came from a rock
background and I started out when I was 13 in a pop-punk band in high school
and gigging doing all the messy pubs and bars and stuff. I think [it gives me]
a different edge to the other guys,’ he said.
With his single’s lyrics detailing his lust to find a
girl that ‘keeps me up all night’, Fox insists his track is perfectly innocent.
‘It’s not about shagging! It’s about partying!’ he
laughed – with a knowing wink.
