"'''In2'''" is the debut single by British [[Contemporary R&B|R&B]] trio [[WSTRN]]. It was released on 20 July 2015<ref>{{Citation|title=WSTRN - IN2 (Original Video) {{!}} Link Up TV|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4k3g4VGRn8E|language=en|access-date=2020-01-20}}</ref> by [[Atlantic Records]]. The song peaked at number four on the [[UK Singles Chart]], having initially reached number 60 based on streams alone.

==Background and release==
The song was originally accompanied by a low-budget video of a West London block party directed by Morgan Keyz,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://uk.complex.com/music/2011/07/akelle-charles-louis-rei-haile-in2|title=Watch Akelle Charles, Louis Rei & Haile's Video For "IN2"|work=[[Complex (magazine)|Complex UK]]|author=Oke, Tobi|date=21 July 2011}}{{Dead link|date=August 2025 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}</ref> and uploaded onto the Link Up TV [[YouTube]] channel. It was credited as Akelle Charles featuring Haile and Louis Rei, and was due to be released as the first single from the trio's EP, ''Western Union''.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.mtv.co.uk/the-wrap-up/blog/akelle-charles-joins-haile-louis-rei-for-summer-smash-in2|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150814025250/http://www.mtv.co.uk/the-wrap-up/blog/akelle-charles-joins-haile-louis-rei-for-summer-smash-in2|url-status=dead|archive-date=August 14, 2015|title=Akelle Charles joins Haile & Louis Rei for Summer Smash 'In2'|work=[[MTV (UK and Ireland)|MTV Wrap-Up]]|author=Alexander, Samuel|date=26 July 2011}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://rwdmag.com/west-londons-akelle-charles-louis-rei-haile-are-in2-you/|title=We're 'In2' this song from Akelle Charles, Louis Rei & Haile|work=[[RWD Magazine]]|author=Walker, Joe|date=22 July 2011|access-date=4 December 2015|archive-date=8 December 2015|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151208041840/http://rwdmag.com/west-londons-akelle-charles-louis-rei-haile-are-in2-you/|url-status=dead}}</ref> However, the three artists adopted the collective name WSTRN following the song's popularity, and re-branded the song with a new video following its signing to [[Atlantic Records]].
