“So What” is from biological sisters Temera and Toy, better known as the Stellar Award-nominated duo 5 A.M. Praise. It’s the first radio single from their third upcoming album, All From Above-The Best of 5 AM. Praise.

Amidst an insistent marching beat and techno wallpaper interrupted occasionally by swirls of polyrhythm, the sisters shrug off bad vibes and negativity with a “so what” because they “stand on the promises of God.”

The song has an interesting back story: MSG John B. Royston, Jr., who co-wrote “So What,” is serving in the U.S. Army and actually wrote some of the lyrics while in Iraq. The song’s intensity was no doubt inspired in part by life in a war zone.
