Pretoria, South Africa [21 November 2025] – South African rock band Future Radio returns with their explosive new single It’s Not Over, a bold and unapologetic pop-rock statement about standing your ground when life or people try to break you down.
It’s Not Over is an energetic fusion of pop, pop-rock, pop-punk, and new wave, infused with indie rock and electropop influences. With its driving beat and chant-like hook, “It’s not over, not over till I say that,” the song captures a playful yet defiant attitude. It’s a battle cry for self-respect and empowerment, aimed at those who’ve been underestimated or treated unfairly. What starts as frustration turns into determination and strength, refusing to back down when pushed too far.
Johnny Late, Future Radio’s frontman and songwriter, describes the track as a rally cry against bullies and anyone who believes they can walk over others. “One of the things I hate most is bullies,” says Johnny. “No one has the right to treat someone else badly. This song started as that, a line in the sand. It’s about saying, ‘You might have won the battle, but the war just started.’ It’s fun, it’s defiant, and it was an absolute blast to make.”
The track was self-produced by Future Radio and mixed and mastered by Joshua Oosthuizen from Blue Mountain Industries in Canada. The release will be supported by a full-scale promotional campaign, including a radio blitz, music video, single launch, lyric video, remix, live version, and social media rollout.
