Interesting facts and trivia about Need U (100%) (feat. A*M*E). By Songfacts®.

Adam Dyment is a British DJ and producer, who is better known by his stage name of Duke Dumont. This is his first single, which features vocals from teenage singer-songwriter A*M*E. It was released as a digital download in the United Kingdom on March 31, 2013.

A*M*E is a singer-songwriter whose music falls somewhere within the space of urban-electro-dance-pop. She was born in Sierra Leone with a birth name of Amy Kabba, and moved to the UK when she was eight years old. A*M*E was discovered by Take That's Gary Barlow and signed to his Future Records label in late 2011. Since then, she's put out buzz tracks "Ride Or Die" and "Find A Boy" as well as her debut single, "Play the Game Boy". Her first major success as a songwriter came when "Beautiful Stranger" became a #1 hit in Korea for K-pop band f(x).
In early 2013 A*M*E signed to Sony Music's Epic Records after Barlow closed Future Records to focus on his own career commitments.

A*M*E revealed to The Daily Star that she was struggling with tiredness as she penned the song with songwriter and producer MNEK and Duke Dumont. "We hooked up with Duke through the internet. He was hearing what I was doing and filed over a beat to me and fellow songwriter MNEK," she recalled. "We had just got in about half an hour before and were so tired we couldn't be bothered to write a full-on song, so MNEK hummed a little hook and I did the chorus lyrics really quick, and that's how it came about."
