"ASAP" is an up-tempo R&B song about a partner's interfering mother, recorded in London in early 2001. It was Bardot's first release as a four-piece following Katie Underwood's departure in mid-2001. Initially Underwood recorded vocals on the track, however these vocals were later removed after she left the group.[2][3]
"ASAP" was added to the UK version of their debut album Bardot, released on August 27, 2001,[4] and served as Bardot's second single in the UK.[5]
