Chase & Status have had three number one tracks on the UK Dance Chart in 2007 with the double A-side "Hurt You"/"Sell Me Your Soul", and in 2008 with "Take Me Away"/"Judgement (Informer)". On 5 October 2008, they reached number 70 on the national singles chart and number one on the UK Dance Chart again with their single "Pieces" featuring vocals by Plan B. In 2009, they made number 45 with "Against All Odds" which featured UK rapper Kano.
Chase & Status' first album, More Than Alot, debuted in the UK album charts at number 49 on 19 October 2008 and entered the UK dance album chart at number 2.
Their album More Than Alot received the Best Album Award at the 2009 Drum and Bass awards, Birmingham, UK.
Following the success of their last album the band wanted to gain a more global success. After meeting with a long time favourite of theirs, Cloud9, they decided to move in a different direction. Together they agreed that the band should do more pop collaborations in order to achieve a more mainstream fanbase. Soon afterwards they quickly began working on the album. On 8 November 2009, the duo entered the UK Top 40 for the first time with the track "End Credits". The track was released on 2 November 2009 and featuring British musician Plan B managed to reach a peak of number 9 on the UK Singles Chart. The single was written for the movie Harry Brown, which also starred Ben Drew, aka. Plan B.
The duo then released "Let You Go" on 15 August 2010, revealing it to be the second official single to be released from their second studio album, named No More Idols according to posters outside their album launch show at the HMV Forum in Kentish Town on October 21. The single featured vocals from Mali and debuted on the UK Singles Chart at number 11; marking the duo's second consecutive Top 40 hit. "Hypest Hype" featuring Tempa T was confirmed in October 2010 to be the third single from the album and was released as a free download from their website on 8 November 2010; meaning it did not qualify to chart. The fourth single from the album is the dubstep-flavoured Blind Faith, which features Nottingham-born soul singer/songwriter Liam Bailey - it was released on 31 January 2011. The new anticipated album also contains a new single 'Heavy' with Dizzee Rascal.
They have also created a remix version of "Invaders Must Die" for The Prodigy. The remix reached 53 in the Australian Aria Singles Chart and 7 in the Aria Dance Chart. They have also produced for Bajan singer Rihanna, on her fourth album Rated R as well as for British singer Alexandra Burke's album Overcome.

We get it all up
We got it all wrong
Now everywhere I go I know I'll see
That everyone's dust, and everywhere's done
Now everybody knows what we've been through
And you know I wanna be with you
I take it all in, I let it all out
Baby when you look into my eyes I know
You got it like that, you got it like that
Baby when you look into my eyes I know
You got it like that, you got it like that
I keep pushing on that upper side
To say what I need
And make you believe, oh oh
It's a question of a weave my pride
If only you'll see, but live and let breathe, oh
Now everybody knows what we've been through
And you know I wanna be with you
Everybody knows what we've been through
I take it all in, I let it all out
Baby when you look into my eyes I know
You got it like that, you got it like that
Baby when you look into my eyes I know
You got it like that, you got it like that
I have been a fool to lift my head above the ground
I've been a fool to be mislead and messed around
I've been a fool to let you leave, I'm grateful too
I've been a fool to misbelief
Now everybody knows what we've been through
And you know I wanna be with you
Everybody knows what we've been through
I take it all in, I let it all out
Baby when you look into my eyes I know
You look into my eyes I know
You got it like that, you got it like that
Baby when you look into my eyes I know
You look into my eyes I know
You got it like that, you got it like that
The lyrics to the song “Like That” by Chase & Status feat. Moko are filled with emotion and vulnerability. The first verse talks about how the person singing doesn't really know what their lover is doing to them, but it's creating a lot of confusion and chaos. They say that they "got it all wrong" and that "everywhere's done" because of this turmoil. Despite everything, though, the person still knows they will keep running into reminders of their past relationship.
The chorus is where the title of the song comes into play: the singer tells their lover that they "got it like that" when they look into their eyes. It's like they're saying that this person has some kind of power over them that they can't fully understand. The second verse is about trying to communicate with the lover and prove to them that what they say is true. The singer knows that they need to let go of their pride and just speak from the heart, but it's difficult. The bridge is where the singer admits to being foolish in the past and making mistakes, but they are still grateful for the lessons they've learned.
Overall, the song is a reflection on the complexities of relationships and how they can change people in unexpected ways. It's about admitting to vulnerability and being willing to take risks to find love.

There's no telling what you do to me
I can never predict how you make me feel
We get it all up
We fully involve ourselves in everything
We got it all wrong
We've made mistakes
Now everywhere I go I know I'll see
I see reminders of you wherever I go
That everyone's dust, and everywhere's done
All things will eventually fade away
Now everybody knows what we've been through
Our experiences are well-known by others
And you know I wanna be with you
I want to be in a relationship with you
I take it all in, I let it all out
I experience and express my emotions fully
Baby when you look into my eyes I know
I can tell from your gaze
You got it like that, you got it like that
You possess a certain quality or skill
I keep pushing on that upper side
I continuously strive for improvement
To say what I need
To express myself honestly
And make you believe, oh oh
To convince you of something
It's a question of a weave my pride
Pride is involved in the situation
If only you'll see, but live and let breathe, oh
I hope you understand, but I'll let you do what you need to do
I have been a fool to lift my head above the ground
I regret being vulnerable
I've been a fool to be mislead and messed around
I regret being deceived and hurt
I've been a fool to let you leave, I'm grateful too
I regret allowing you to leave, but I also appreciate it
I've been a fool to misbelief
I regret believing something untrue
You look into my eyes I know
I can tell from your gaze
You got it like that, you got it like that
You possess a certain quality or skill

Chase & Status fucking legends !
TheBrettYouNeed
Such good times we had with this album, the nostalgia is through the roof right now! Popping E's in small town clubs to the annoyance of the security guys, dancing all night and then some, watching skins episodes, falling in love and breaking up again, meeting all those crazy people... it's not even that long ago but some memories have faded already. If you are young right now please do me a favor and enjoy every second of it, even if it's hard under todays circumstances.
