PREP have also sharpened their remixing chops, cutting an official remix for the massiveSnakehips / Tinashe / Chance The Rapper hit "All My Friends."
Taking inspiration from artists like Steely Dan, Michael McDonald, and Bobby Caldwell, who used session musicians to build a rich ensemble sound, PREP have been honing their live show with an expanded 6-piece live band. Their debut show sold out within a week and they also supported Massive Attack and TV On The Radio at BST Hyde Park.
With widespread critical support and radio love from BBC Radio 1, 1Xtra, KCRW, and Beats1, the band is turning heads and, as The Line of Best Fit coins, bringing listeners to "a much-needed funk-fueled trip to a sun-filled beach.

You seemed so sure of what you wanted
But I guess everybody's lookin' to disappear
You're the only road I can see from here
And I don't mind it gettin' us nowhere
'Cause I've been doin' a lot of thinkin' since we split
Said a lot of things when I didn't know shit
Sometimes I'm slow to the mark
Been in a lot of places I don't fit
I know we're better
I know we're more if we take the chance
This one could run on and on
With all those sparks that never catch
(The way it is, just the way it is)
And all those birds that never fly back
(The way it is, just the way it is)
If you're still lookin' for a place to disappear
There's a lot of sky I can see from here
If you don't mind it gettin' us nowhere
'Cause I've been doin' a lot of thinkin' since we split
Said a lot of things when I didn't know shit
And I should've loved you more, that's the truth of it
But sometimes I'm slow to the mark
Been in a lot of places I don't fit
I know we're better
I know we're more if we take the chance
This one could run on and on
On and on
On and on
(The way it is, just the way it was)
On and on
(The way it is, just the way it was)
On and on, on and on...
On and on
(The way it is, just the way it...)
The lyrics to Prep's song "On and On" explore feelings of longing and regret in the aftermath of a break-up. The singer expresses remorse for not having loved their partner enough and not realizing what they had until it was gone. The idea of disappearing or running away is also present, suggesting that the singer may be feeling lost or uncertain about where to go from here. Despite these feelings, the singer holds onto the possibility of a future with their partner, acknowledging that it may take some effort and risk-taking to get there.
The repetition of the phrase "On and on" at the end of each chorus reinforces the idea of a relationship that could continue indefinitely if given the chance. The imagery of sparks that never catch and birds that never fly back speaks to the fleeting nature of love and the difficulty of recapturing it once it's gone. The line "Sometimes I'm slow to the mark" suggests that the singer may have made mistakes or missed opportunities in the past, but they are now ready to take action and fight for their relationship.

I never thought I had a chance
I didn't think we could be together
You seemed so sure of what you wanted
You seemed confident that we couldn't be together
But I guess everybody's lookin' to disappear
Everyone wants to be hidden or vanish at some point
You're the only road I can see from here
You're the only way for me to go forward
And I don't mind it gettin' us nowhere
It's fine to not have any progress, as long as we're together
'Cause I've been doin' a lot of thinkin' since we split
I've been reflecting a lot since we broke up
Said a lot of things when I didn't know shit
I said things when I didn't understand enough
And I should've loved you more, that's the truth of it
I should have loved you better
Sometimes I'm slow to the mark
Sometimes I don't realize things right away
Been in a lot of places I don't fit
I've been in many situations that weren't for me
I know we're better
I know we could be great together
I know we're more if we take the chance
I know we could be even better if we give it a shot
This one could run on and on
Our relationship could last forever
With all those sparks that never catch
Even with all the potential, nothing ever happened between us
(The way it is, just the way it is)
That's just how things are
And all those birds that never fly back
All the chances that were missed and will never come back
If you're still lookin' for a place to disappear
If you still need to escape
There's a lot of sky I can see from here
There's endless possibilities available for us
On and on
Our relationship lasting forever
(The way it is, just the way it was)
Things have always been this way
On and on, on and on...
Our love continuing indefinitely
(The way it is, just the way it...)
Things will always remain as they are

On and On by PREP lyrics
[Verse 1]
I never thought I had a chance,
It seems so sure of what you wanted,
I guess everybody is looking to disappear,
You're the only road I can see from here,
But I don't mind in getting us nowhere,
[Chorus]
Cause I've been doing a lot of thinking since we split ,
Saying a lot of things when I didn't know shit ,
And I should loved you more that's the truth of it,
Sometimes I'm slow to the mark,
I've been a lot of places since I don't fit,
I know it better, I know it more,
If you take a chance,
This one could run,
On and On,
[Verse 2]
And all those sparks that never catch,
And all those birds that never fly back,
I'm still looking for a place to disappear,
There's a lot of sky I can see from here,
If you don't mind in getting us nowhere,
[Chorus]
Cause I've been doing a lot of thinking since we split,
Saying a lot of things when I didn't know shit,
And I should loved you more that's the truth of it,
Sometimes I'm slow to the mark,
I've been a lot of places since I don't fit,
I know it better, I know it more,
If you take a chance,
This one could run,
On and On,
On and On,
On and On,
On and On,
P.S. I did my best and feel free to correct some of the parts. Thank you :)
